PREFACE. 


\Ji UCH  of  the  matter  in  this  volume  is  based,  in  large  measure,  on  the 
corresponding  publication  of  a  decade  ago.  The  old  historical 
sketch  of  the  University  has  been  rearranged  to  some  extent;  a  few  minor 
points,  formerly  omitted,  have  been  introduced,  and  such  other  inser- 
tions and  additions  have  been  made  as  were  necessary  to  bring  the  whole 
down  to  date. 

The  historical  sketches  of  the  professional  departments  and  of  the 
schools  of  the  academic  department  were  prepared  by  the  heads  of 
these  departments  and  schools. 

The  biographical  sketches  of  the  presidents  and  chancellors  of  the 
University  have  been  taken,  in  the  main,  from  recent  University  period- 
icals. The  first  six  appeared  in  the  University  of  Mississippi  Magazine 
in  1902,  and  were  from  the  pen  of  Professor  Dabney  Lipscomb.  The 
sketch  of  ex-Chancellor  Fulton  was  published  in  the  College  Annual, 
"Ole  Miss,"  in  1907.  That  of  Chancellor  Kincannon,  with  additions 
made  later  by  the  editor  of  this  book,  appeared  in  the  Annual  of  the  fol- 
lowing year.    This  last  was  also  from  Professor  Lipscomb. 

The  register  of  officers  and  students  closes  with  the  session  of  1908-9. 

Mr.  J.  E.  Calhoun  and  Mr.  D.  N.  Powers,  Secretaries  to  the  Chancellor, 
had  charge  of  the  work  of  revising  the  lists  of  names  contained  in  the  His- 
torical Catalogue  of  1899  and  of  preparing  the  additional  list  embracing 
all  "students  who  have  attended  the  University  since  that  time.  Those 
Chancery  Court  clerks  who  rendered  valuable  assistance  in  this  matter 
of  compiling  statistics  in  regard  to  former  University  students  residing 
in  their  counties  are  entitled  to  sincere  thanks. 

It  has  been  found  advisable  to  arrange  the  names  of  students  first  in 
the  order  of  their  entrance  into  the  University,  and  by  classes,  and  also 
to  give  a  complete  alphabetical  list.  The  dates  in  this  index  refer  to  one 
year  in  which  the  student  was  enrolled  in  the  University,  and  will  serve 
as  a  guide  to  further  information  recorded  in  that  part  of  the  catalogue 
corresponding  to  the  year  shown. 

In  the  general  catalogue  of  former  students,  it  has  been  attempted  to 
give  the  present  address  of  all  who  are  living.  While  this  has  been  accom- 
plished in  many  instances,  it  has  been  found  impossible  to  locate  a  large 
number.  The  prefix  "Hon."  is  used  in  its  common  sense  to  indicate  one 
who  has  been  a  member  of  the  Legislature;  other  abbreviations  will  be 
readily  understood.  The  duplication  of  names  is  intentional  when  the 
first  record  shows  the  entrance  of  the  student  and  the  second  his  gradu- 
ation. It  is  believed  that  this  arrangement  of  names  in  reference  to 
years  of  attendance  is  more  satisfactory  to  those  who  will  read  the  list 
than  any  other  order.

vi  PREFACE. 

It  is  an  unfortunate  but  unavoidable  feature  of  work  of  this  kind  that 
tho  facts  withered  by  correspondence  are  those  relating  to  such  accom- 
plishments of  individuals  as  have  brought  them  prominently  before  the 
public  eye.  While  many  are  thus  mentioned  as  having  achieved  dis- 
tinction, it  should  be  carefully  borne  in  mind  that  there  are  hundreds  of 
names  in  this  catalogue  belonging  to  those  who  have  done  their  life  work 
in  the  noblest  manner,  and  who  as  citizens  and  as  patriots  are  worthy  of 
the  highest  praise,  and  yet  whose  taste  or  inclination  has  kept  them  from 
seeking  ublic  positions.  Many  of  these  have  devoted  themselves  with 
the  greatest  success  to  private  business,  as  planters,  merchants,  physi- 
cians, lawyers,  teachers,  in  whose  eminent  success  in  these  lines  the  Uni- 
versity properly  takes  as  much  pride  as  in  the  achievements  of  those  of 
her  sons  who  have  won  more  conspicuous  positions.

HISTORICAL  SKETCH. 


/^\NE  of  the  last  acts  of  the  old  Continental  Congress  was  the  passage  of 
^"^  the  bill  which  became  a  law  on  July  13, 1787,  and  which  has  become  cel- 
ebrated in  the  history  of  public  education  and  otherwise  as  the  "ordinance 
of  1787  for  the  government  of  the  Northwest  Territory."  The  third  of 
the  six  articles  of  compact  forming  a  part  of  the  ordinance  foreshadowed 
the  policy  of  the  Federal  Government,  and  that  of  the  States  to  be  formed 
out  of  the  territory  to  which  the  ordinance  related,  in  reference  to  edu- 
cation, in  the  statement  that  "religion,  morality  and  knowledge,  being 
necessary  to  good  government  and  the  happiness  of  mankind,  schools 
and  the  means  of  education  shall  forever  be  encouraged." 

By  the  Act  of  May  20,  1790,  Congress  extended  the  general  provisions 
of  the  ordinance  of  1787  to  the  Mississippi  territory,  and  by  the  Act  of 
March  3,  1815,  reserved  from  sale,  for  the  support  of  common  school  edu- 
cation, the  sixteenth  section  of  every  township  of  land,  and  one  entire 
township  for  the  use  of  a  seminary  of  learning  in  this  territory,  which 
included  the  district  now  covered  by  the  States  of  Alabama  and  Missis- 
sippi. By  the  Act  of  February  20,  1819,  the  State  of  Mississippi  received 
in  lieu  of  the  township  just  referred  to,  another  single  township;  "vested 
in  the  Legislature  of  the  said  State,  in  trust,  for  the  support  of  a  semi- 
nary of  learning  therein." 

The  principles  stated  in  the  ordinance  of  1787  became  national  policy. 
To  every  State  formed  out  of  the  public  domain  Congress  has  granted,  in 
carrying  out  the  spirit  of  this  ordinance,  lands  for  the  support  of  common 
schools  and  a  seminary  of  learning  or  university. 

The  State  of  Mississippi  received  thus  one  section  in  every  township 
for  common  schools,  and  ONE  township  for  the  support  of  a  seminary  of 
learning — the  one  received  under  the  Act  of  Congress  of  February  20, 
1819. 

These  grants  have  been  uniformly  made  to  the  State  or  its  Legisla- 
ture, in  trust,  for  the  purpose  intended,  and  in  the  case  of  every  State 
and  Territory  formed  out  of  the  public  domain  already,  and  in  the  case 
of  each  being  formed,  the  Acts  of  Congress  have  been  so  framed  as  to  se- 
cure to  each  State  clearly,  without  incumbrance  of  any  kind,  not  less  than 
two  townships  of  public  land  for  the  support  of  a  seminary  of  learning  or 
university,  excepting  only  the  State  of  Mississippi,  which  under  the  orig- 
inal Act  received  but  one.

2  UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI. 

The  Act  of  Congress  making  the  first  grant  for  a  seminary  of  learning 
to  the  State  of  Mississippi  is  dated  February  20,  1819,  and  its  wording  is 
peculiar.     After  the  usual  grant  for  a  seat  of  government  comes — 

SEC.  2.  And  b«  it  further  enacted,  That  in  addition  to  the  township  of 
land  granted  for  the  support  of  Jefferson  College,  there  shall  be  granted 
in  the  said  State  another  township,  or  a  quantity  of  land  equal  thereto, 
to  be  located  in  tracts  of  not  less  than  four  entire  sections  each,  which 
shall  be  vested  in  the  Legislature  of  the  said  State,  in  trust,  for  the  sup- 
port of  a  seminary  of  learning  therein.     *********** 

The  expression  "in  addition  to  the  township  of  land  granted  for  the 
support  of  Jefferson  College,"  suggests  that  Congress  thought  when  this 
act  was  passed  that  Jefferson  College  was  an  institution  belonging  to  the 
State  of  Mississippi.  As  a  matter  of  fact,  Jefferson  College  was  a  pri- 
vate corporation  chartered  in  the  Mississippi  Territory  in  1802.  To  this 
private  corporation,  by  Act  dated  March  3d,  1803,  Congress  had  donated 
one  township  of  land.  This  land  had  been  located  on  the  Tombeckbee 
river,  and  when  the  Territory  of  Alabama  was  formed  by  the  Act  of  March 
3d,  1S17,  these  lands  fell  within  the  Territory  of  Alabama.  The  grant 
made  to  Jefferson  College  was  made  before  the  State  of  Mississippi  was 
organized  and  was  by  its  terms  a  donation  to  a  private  corporation. 

The  official  history  of  the  Public  Domain  classes  the  grant  to  Jefferson 
College  under  the  list  of  "Donations  and  SpecialGrants"  and  gives  the  order 
of  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury  of  the  United  States  locating  the  lands» 
and  dated  October  5,  1812.  It  is  important  to  note  that  the  site  of  Jeffer- 
son College  was  near  Natchez,  in  the  present  limits  of  the  State  of  Mis- 
sissippi, but  the  township  granted  to  it  was  located  on  the  Tombeckbee 
river,  and  this  location  was  not  changed  up  to  the  time  when  the  Act  of 
Congress  of  February  20,  1819,  was  passed,  although  at  that  time  the 
lands  were  situated  in  what  had  become  the  separate  Territory  of  Alabama, 
by  the  Act  of  March  3,  1817. 

If,  therefore,  in  the  Act  of  February  20,  1819,  Congress  considered 
that  the  grant  made  to  Jefferson  College  had  been  made  to  the  people  or 
the  Legislature  of  the  Mississippi  Territory,  it  assumed  that  a  grant  made 
to  a  private  corporation  had  been  made  to  the  people,  and  assumed  also 
that  a  township,  actually  then  located  within  the  limits  of  the  Territory 
of  Alabama,  belonged  to  the  people  of  Mississippi. 

Without  dwelling  upon  the  complications  that  would  have  arisen  if 
Mississippi  had  claimed  the  ownership  of  a  township  of  land  within  the 
limits  of  the  State  of  Alabama,  it  is  worthy  of  note  that  from  its  founda- 
tion, in  1802,  to  the  year  1826,  there  is  nothing  in  the  Acts  of  the  Terri- 
torial or  State  Legislatures  in  Mississippi  indicating  that  Jefferson  Col- 
lege was  in  any  way  under  the  control  of  the  State.  It  is  true  that  the 
Territorial  Legislature  in  the  Act  of  December  13,  1816,  provided  for  a 
loan  of  money  to  the  trustees  of  Jefferson  College,  but  it  also  provided 
that  "bond  in  double  the  amount  should  be  taken,"  and  that  suit  should  be 
instituted  if  the  funds  should  not  be  returned  at  the  stipulated  time. 
Moreover,  in  the  same  Act  of  December  13,  1816,  the  Legislature  made 
donations  of  money  to  two  other  schools — Greene  Academy  and  St.  Ste- 


UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI.  3 

phen's  Academy — which  were,  in  no  sense,  State  institutions,  and  not 
so  regarded  by  the  Legislature. 

The  Legislature  and  people  of  the  newly  formed  State  of  Mississippi  were 
eager  to  utilize  the  means  for  public  education  afforded  in  the  grants  of 
land  made  by  Congress  in  the  Act  of  February  20,  1819.  It  was,  how- 
ever, at  once  evident  to  the  Legislature  that  it  would  have  difficulty  in 
securing  the  township  which  had  been  granted  by  Congress  to  Jefferson 
College,  a  private  corporation.  The  Act  of  Congress  of  Febraury  20, 
1819,  implied  that  the  original  grant  to  Jefferson  College  had  been  in- 
tended for  the  Territory  and  State  of  Mississippi.  It  was  evident  to  the 
Legislature  of  the  State  that  there  was  no  valid  ground  on  which  it  could 
base  a  claim  to  this  township,  however  much  it  might  desire  to  have  this 
addition  to  the  lands  it  had  received  from  Congress  for  the  support  of 
common  schools  and  a  seminary  of  learning.  The  trustees  of  Jefferson 
College  seemed  willing  to  relinquish  some  of  their  rights  as  an  independent 
corporation  if  thereby  they  might  help  the  institution  to  prosperity,  or 
gain  assistance  from  the  State. 

The  following  extract  from  a  "Historical  Sketch  of  Jefferson  College, 
published  by  order  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  in  1840,"  page  79,  bears  out  this 
statement : 

"To  afford  an  opportunity  to  the  Legislature  of  placing  the  institution 
[Jefferson  College]  more  immediately  under  its  control  and  management, 
and  to  give  to  it  that  patronage  and  support  which  would  be  due  to  it  as  a 
State  Institution,  the  trustees  proposed  to  the  next  session  of  the  Legisla- 
ture, in  January,  1825,  a  modification  of  their  charter.  The  act  of  the 
thirtieth  of  January,  1826,  was  accordingly  passed  and  accepted  by  the 
trustees."  . 

It  was  clearly  understood,  by  both  the  Legislature  and  the  trustees  of 
Jefferson  College,  at  this  time,  1826,  that  the  College  was  not  a  "State 
institution." 

In  1829,  the  Legislature  of  the  State  adpoted  a  resolution  authorizing 
the  Executive — 

"To  appoint  three  agents  to  inquire  into  all  the  means  and  resources  in 
the  State  applicable  to  the  purpose  of  general  education;  to  confer  with 
the  trustees  of  Jefferson  College  and  ascertain  the  condition  and  pros- 
pects of  the  institution,  and  whether  it  was  practicable,  and  on  what  terms 
the  trustees  would  surrender  the  charter  to  the  State. 

"The  conference  accordingly  took  place  on  the  twenty-seventh  of 
October,  1829,  and  an  address,  setting  forth  their  views  at  large,  was  pre- 
sented by  the  agents,  accompanied  by  several  interrogatories  propounded 
by  them  as  to  the  dimensions  and  arrangements  of  the  college  building, 
the  endowments  and  available  funds,  the  number  and  character  of  the 
professors,  its  future  prospects,  the  expediency  of  surrendering  the  char- 
ter, and,  if  the  surrender  was  deemed  expedient,  what  report  the  agents 
should  make  to  the  Legislature  as  to  the  money  loaned  to  the  institu- 
tion."    (Extract  from  "H  storical  Sketch  of  Jefferson  College,"  page  83.) 

From  the  ;ame  "Historical  Sketch,"  published  by  the  trustees  of  Jef- 
ferson College,  the  following  statements  are  taken  (see  pp.  83,  84)~i 


4  UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI. 

"The  temper  of  the  board  assembled  on  this  occasion  was  most  favor- 
able to  the  desires  of  the  agents.  The  investigation,  however,  given 
the  subject  by  the  committee  appointed  to  prepare  a  reply  on  behalf  of 
the  trustees,  satisfied  not  only  the  trustees,  but  the  agents  themselves, 
of  the  utter  inexpediency,  if  not  impracticability,  of  the  measure. 

"*  *  *  As  to  the  proposed  surrender  of  the  charter,  it  was  shown 
that  the  proposition  involved  not  merely  the  annihilation  of  Jefferson 
College,  but  the  forfeiture  of  its  resources,  and,  consequently,  could  con- 
fer no  benefit  to  any  other  institution,  though  established  in  its  name; 
that  it  could  not,  by  the  clearest  principle  of  law,  transmit  its  revenues 
or  endowments  to  an  institution  erected  in  its  stead;  for,  as  to  all  pur- 
poses to  which  they  were  designed,  they  would  necessarily  fail  with  the 
demise  of  the  corporation  in  which  they  were  originally  vested.  *  *  * 
The  land  on  the  Tombigby,  if  it  did  not  revert  to  the  original  grantor, 
would  escheat  to  the  State  of  Alabama." 

After  this  failure  to  secure  the  surrender  of  the  charter  of  Jefferson 
College  to  the  State,  in  1829,  on  account  of  the  difficulties  indicated,  all 
hope  of  the  State's  gaining  control  of  the  township  of  land  granted  by 
Congress  to  Jefferson  College  was  lost,  and  the  Legislature  turned  its 
attention  to  the  proper  administration  of  the  trust  connected  with  the 
second  township  mentioned  in  the  Act  of  Congress  of  February  20,  1819, 
and  received  previously  to   1825. 

Various  causes  prevented  the  speedy  use  of  this  grant  for  the  purpose 
intended.  The  ambiguity  of  the  Act  of  donation  in  its  reference  to  Jef- 
ferson College,  a  private  institution,  itself  a  beneficiary  of  Congress,  the 
desire  of  this  and  other  schools  to  be  taken  under  the  fostering  care  of  the 
State  and  to  become  the  recipients  of  the  seminary  fund,  and  the  fact 
that  the  Indian  title  was  not  extinguished  to  a  large  part  of  the  territory 
embraced  in  the  State,  are  reasons  which  seem  to  have  had  weight  in 
causing  the  putting  off  to  a  later  date  of  the  founding  of  a  State  Univer- 
sity upon  the  grant  of  land  received  from  the  Federal  Congress. 

From  1829  to  1833  the  State  adopted  the  policy  of  leasing  the  seminary 
lands.  As  these  were  agricultural  lands,  generally  covered  with  heavy 
timber,  and  as  other  lands  were  abundant  in  the  market,  the  plan  was 
not  successful,  and  up  to  1831  only  $8,402  was  received  from  rents.  In 
1831  the  Legislature  directed  the  lands  to  be  sold.  Thirty-five  and  one- 
half  sections  were  sold,  in  the  manner  prescribed  by  the  Legislature,  for 
1277,332.52.  The  Act  of  the  Legislature  of  February  20,  1840,  appropria- 
ted all  the  proceeds  of  the  sale  of  seminary  lands  "for  the  use  and  benefit 
of  the  University  of  the  State  of  Mississippi." 

The  management  of  the  funds  received  from  the  sale  of  the  original 
grant  from  Congress  was  vested  in  the  Legislature  of  the  State.  The 
Act  of  the  Legislature  of  March  5,  1880,  provides  for  the  ascertainment 
of  the  indebtedness  of  the  State  on  account  of  the  seminary  fund,  and 
"that  the  sum  of  $32,613  be,  and  the  same  is  hereby,  appropriated  for  the 
year  1880,  and  annually  thereafter,  for  the  purpose  of  paying  the  inter- 
est due  on  said  sum  of  $544,061.22." 


UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI.  5 

The  fact  that  Mississippi  was  entitled  to  at  least  one  more  township  of 
land  for  the  State  University  seems  to  have  been  entirely  forgotten  in 
the  State  until  the  attention  of  Chancellor  Fulton  was  attracted  to  it  in 
his  study  of  the  history  of  the  University  in  1892.  He  called  the  atten- 
tion of  the  Board  of  Trustees  to  the  matter  in  his  annual  report  in  June, 
1892.  No  action  was  then  taken  in  the  matter.  Attention  was  again 
called  to  it  in  1893,  and  the  board  authorized  the  Chancellor  to  prepare 
a  memorial  to  Congress  reciting  the  facts  and  asking  for  the  grant  of  ad- 
ditional lands  to  indemnify  the  State  and  the  University.  This  memo- 
rial was  prepared  as  directed,  signed  by  the  members  of  the  Board  of 
Trustees,  and  presented  to  Congress.  It  enlisted  the  hearty  support  of 
all  the  Senators  and  Representatives  in  Congress  from  Mississippi.  The 
memorial  asked,  in  order  that  the  State  and  University  might  be  fully 
indemnified  for  the  failure  of  Congress  to  grant  to  Mississippi  in  1819 
her  full  quota  of  land  for  a  State  University,  that  Congress  would  grant 
to  the  State  of  Mississippi  for  the  State  University  three  additional  town- 
ships, making  the  amount  to  this  State  for  the  State  University  as  great 
as  to  any  of  the  States  for  this  purpose. 

As  a  result  of  this  memorial,  Congress,  by  the  Act  of  June  20,  1894, 
granted  one  additional  township  of  land  to  the  State  for  the  State  Uni- 
versity. 

This  land  was  selected  in  1895  out  of  lands  that  had  been  formerly  re- 
served for  naval  uses.  These  lands  were  restored  to  the  Public  Domain 
by  Act  of  March  3,  1895,  whose  passage  was  urged  by  Chancellor  Fulton 
with  the  eo-operation  of  the  delegation  from  Mississippi  in  Congress. 
Upon  the  passage  of  this  Act,  land  was  at  once  selected  by  the  Governor 
for  the  University.  This  additional  township  of  23,040  acres  lies  in  the 
yellow  pine  district  of  the  State  in  Harrison  and  Jackson  Counties. 

On  March  23,  1900,  the  State  Treasurer  gave  credit  to  the  University 
for  the  sum  of  $134,688.24,  being  the  proceeds  of  the  sale  by  the  Trustees 
of  the  University  of  Mississippi  made  on  the  10th  of  March,  1900,  of  the 
timber  on  16,833.53  acres  of  land,  a  part  of  the  grant  of  23,040  acres  of 
land  made  by  Congress  in  the  Act  of  July  20,  1894.  This  fund  is  known 
as  the  1894  Land  Grant  Fund.  To  it  was  added,  October  10,  1905,  the  sum 
of  $20,405  from  the  sale  of  timber  on  other  parts  of  the  township. 

On  the  20th  of  February,  1840,  the  Legislature  passed  an  Act  provid- 
ing for  the  location  of  the  University.  Upon  the  report  of  commission- 
ers appointed  under  this  Act  in  the  year  1841,  before  the  organization  of 
the  University,  the  present  location  was  fixed  by  the  action  of  the  Leg- 
islature by  a  majority  of  one  vote.  On  the  twenty-fourth  of  February, 
1844,  the  University  of  Mississippi  was  duly  chartered  by  the  Legislature 
and  its  first  Board  of  Trustees  named.*    In  July,  1848,  the  election  of  the

first  Faculty  occurred,  and  on  the  sixth  of  November,  of  that  year,  the 
Bret  session  opened. 

The  first  Board  of  Trustees  was  composed  of  men  who  ranked  among 
the  most  distinguished  citizens  of  the  State.  Among  these,  Hon.  James 
Alexander  Ventress  has  the  distinction  of  being  the  author  of  the  bill, 
which  became  a  law  in  1S44,  organizing  the  University.  He  received 
his  education  in  the  common  schools  of  Wilkinson  County,  Mississipi, 
at  the  University  of  Edinburgh,  the  Academie  de  Paris,  and  the  Univer- 
sity of  Berlin.  He  was  a  brilliant  scholar  and  writer.  While  in  Berlin 
he  was  the  German  correspondent  and  assistant  editor  of  the  Revue  de 
Deux  Mondes.  To  the  organization,  equipment  and  maintenance  of  the 
University  of  Mississippi  he  devoted  his  talents  and  his  large  political 
influence  as  a  member  of  the  Legislature  and  Speaker  of  the  House  of 
Representatives.  He  was  continuously  a  member  of  the  Board  of  Trus- 
tees from  1844  to  1867,  the  time  of  his  death.  An  even  longer  period, 
twenty-six  years,  was  covered  by  the  valuable  services  of  another  mem- 
ber of  the  first  Board,  Judge  James  M.  Howry.  From  1844  to  1870  this 
devoted  friend  of  the  University  gave  freely  of  his  time  and  talents  in 
untiring  efforts  to  advance  the  interests  of  the  institution.  During  the 
greater  part  of  this  time  he  discharged  with  eminent  ability  and  con- 
spicuous fidelity  the  duties  of  the  combined  offices  of  Secretary  and  Treas- 
urer. It  was  Judge  Howry  who  successfully  led  the  forces  favoring 
the  introduction  of  the  Evidences  of  Christianity  into  the  curriculum 
and  establishing  the  University  on  a  basis  distinctly  Christian. 

These  are  types  of  the  men  named  in  the  list  of  Trustees  of  the  Uni- 
versity given  in  this  volume.  No  citizens  of  the  State  as  a  body  have 
shown  a  higher  degree  of  intelligence,  or  a  larger  or  more  unselfish  devo- 
tion to  the  highest  public  interests  than  the  men  who  have  from  1844 
given  their  time  and  influence  to  the  promotion  of  higher  education  through 


trustees  of  the  University  of  Mississippi,  in  Lafayette  County,  and  they  and  their  successors 
in  office  are  hereby  declared  and  constituted  a  body  ,  politic  and  corporate,  by  the  name  and 
style  of  the  "University  of  Mississippi,"  a  majority  of  whom  shall  form  a  quorum  to  do  business, 
but  a  committee  of  less  number  may  be  appointed  to  transact  necessary  business  in  the  interim 
of  a  regular  session  of  said  trustees. 

2.  Said  corporation  shall  be  possessed  of  all  the  general  powers,  privileges  and  emoluments 
now  secured  to  similar  corporations  by  the  constitution  and  laws  of  this  State,  and  to  adopt 
such  by-laws  and  rules  as  they  may  deem  expedient  for  the  accomplishment  of  the  trust  reposed 
in  them,  not  repugnant  to  the  constitution  and  laws  of  this  State. 

3.  The  said  board  of  trustees  shall  have  full  power,  and  entire  control,  over  the  funds  be- 
longing to  the  "University  of  Mississippi,"  or  the  "Seminary  Fund,"  after  it  shall  have  been 
collected,  to  be  by  them  applied  toward  the  consummation  of  the  plan  of  the  "University  of 
Mississippi;"  and  said  trustees  shall  have  power  to  devise  and  adopt  such  a  system  of  learning 
as  in  their  judgment  they  may  deem  most  advisable  to  be  pursued  in  the  course  of  education 
in  the  University;  to  employ  a  competent  person  to  draft  a  plan  of  the  same  and  appoint  com- 
missioners to  contract  for  the  erection  of  the  University  building  so  soon  as  they  may  think 
advisable. 

4.  Said  board  of  trustees  shall  have  power  to  fill  all  vacancies  that  may  occur  in  their  body. 

5.  This  Act  shall  be  repealed  at  the  will  of  the  Legislature,  and  shall  be  in  force  from  and 
after  its  passage.

the  University,  without  other  compensation  than  that  which  comes  from 
the  satisfaction  of  a  high  duty  well  discharged. 

The  first  meeting  of  the  Trustees  was  held  in  the  capital  of  the  State, 
January  15,  1845,  at  which  time  an  organization  was  effected.  Under  the 
original  charter  the  Board  was  a  self-perpetuating  corporation  consist- 
ing of  thirteen  members.  In  1857,  by  an  Act  of  the  Legislature,  the  Gov- 
ernor became,  ex  officio,  a  member  and  President  of  the  Board.  Since 
the  Civil  War  vacancies  have  been  filled  by  the  Governor's  appointment. 
An  Act  of  the  Legislature  of  1870  states  that  such  appointments  are  to  be 
made  with  the  advice  and  consent  of  the  Senate.  In  1876  the  number  of 
trustees  was  increased  to  fifteen.  There  are  now  seventeen  members  of 
the  Board  appointed  for  a  term  of  six  years,  one  ex  officio,  the  State  Su- 
perintendent of  Public  Education,  one  from  each  of  the  eight  Congres- 
sional Districts,  and  eight  from  the  State  at  large,  with  the  Governor  as 
ex  officio  President.  In  this  Board  is  vested  the  supreme  control  of  the 
University. 

The  second  regular  meeting  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  was  held  in  Ox- 
ford, July  14,  1845.  The  Board  accepted  two  half-sections  of  land  lying 
immediately  west  of  the  town  of  Oxford,  the  south  half  of  section  20,  and 
the  north  half  of  section  29,  township  8,  range  3  W.,  which  had  been  pur- 
chased by  citizens  of  Oxford  and  Lafayette  County  and  donated  to  the 
State  for  the  location  of  the  University.  Preliminaries  were  arranged  for 
the  construction  of  buildings  and  an  executive  committee  appointed  to 
attend  to  details.  At  that  time  a  virgin  forest  covered  the  present  Cam- 
pus of  the  University.  The  Board  seems  to  have  been  hampered  by  diffi- 
culties in  the  way  of  securing  the  funds  supposed  to  be  available  in  the 
State  treasury  for  their  undertaking,  and  but  little  progress  was  made 
in  preparation  for  work.  At  the  next  meeting  in  January,  1846,  William 
Nicholl,  an  Englishman,  was  elected  as  supervising  architect.  Plans  were 
made  for  the  Lyceum  Building,  the  two  contiguous  dormitories,  and  resi- 
dences for  lour  professors,  and  work  was  begun  upon  these  buildings  prob- 
ably in  1847.  At  the  meeting  of  the  Board  held  in  Oxford  July  12,  1848, 
the  election  of  a  faculty  was  considered.  During  this  meeting  of  the 
Board  occurred  an  earnest  discussion  relating  to  the  religious  character 
of  the  University.  Two  members  of  the  Board  vigorously  opposed  the 
introduction  of  the  Evidences  of  Christianity  into  the  curriculum,  and 
the  election  of  any  Christian  minister  to  a  professorship.  It  was  then 
definitely  settled  that  the  University  should  have  stamped  upon  it  such 
religious  and  moral  character  in  its  work  as  would  be  acceptable  to  the 
Christian  people  who  compose  a  large  majority  of  the  people  of  the  State 
of  Mississippi. 

George  Frederick  Holmes  was  elected  President  of  the  University. 
Albert  Taylor  Bledsoe  was  elected  Professor  of  Mathematics,  etc.  John 
Millington  was  elected  Professor  of  Natural  Sciences;  Rev.  John  N.  Wad- 
del  was  elected  Professor  of  Languages.  To  the  President  of  the  Uni- 
versity was  assigned  instruction  in  Mental  and  Moral  Philosophy,  Logic, 
Belles-Lettres,  Political  Economy,  International  Law.  To  the  Profes- 
sor of  Mathematics  was  assigned  instruction  in  that  department  and  in 


g  UNIVERSITY  OF   MISSISSIPPI. 

t  he  science  of  Astronomy.  The  Professor  of  Natural  Science  was  required 
to  jive  instruction  in  Chemistry,  Botany,  Geology,  Mineralogy  and  Nat- 
ural Philosophy.  The  Professor  of  Languages  was  required  to  give  in- 
struction in  the  Latin,  Greek,  Hebrew,  French,  Spanish  and  German  lan- 
guages. After  laying  these  plans  the  Board  adjourned  to  meet  in  October 
following  for  the  opening  exercises  of  the  University.  The  record  in  the 
minutes  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  for  Monday,  November  6th,  1848,  is  as 
follows:  "The  Board  met  pursuant  to  adjournment;  present,  Messrs. 
Davis.  Howry,  Pegues,  Thompson,  Williams  and  Young.  The  President 
being  absent,  Mr.  Young  was  called  to  the  chair,  and  this  being  appointed 
as  the  day  for  opening  the  University,  the  Board  repaired  to  the  Univer- 
sity buildings  to  attend  to  the  installation  of  the  Faculty,  whereupon  Mr. 
Thompson  delivered  an  address  on  the  part  of  the  Trustees,  and  Mr.  Presi- 
dent Holmes  on  the  part  of  the  Faculty,  and  thereupon  the  institution 
was  declared  open  for  the  reception  of  students,  and  on  motion  of  Mr. 
Davis  the  Board  adjourned  until  to-morrow  morning  at  eight  o'clock." 

During  this  first  session  eighty  students  were  enrolled.  The  records 
indicate  that  most  of  these  young  men  were  very  poorly  prepared  for 
any  sort  of  college  work,  and  that  their  ideals  of  college  life  included  much 
more  of  frolic  than  of  labor.  The  records  of  the  first  Faculty  meetings 
indicate  a  considerable  exercise  of  disciplinary  power.  Nearly  one  month 
was  lost  before  suitable  text-books  could  be  procured,  and  this  oppor- 
tunity was  largely  improved  by  those  students  who  were  inclined  to  idle 
habits.  The  late  Chancellor  Waddel,  who  was  a  participant  in  these 
beginnings,  is  authority  for  the  statement  that  probably  no  more  crude 
and  disorderly  set  of  young  men  ever  assembled  in  any  college.  The 
educating  power  of  the  University  is  exemplified  by  the  fact  that  very 
many  of  these  young  men  have  worthily  filled  places  of  highest  eminence 
and  influence.  The  President  of  the  University  was  forced  to  return  to 
Virginia  on  account  of  sickness  in  his  family  in  the  spring  of  1849.  His 
three  colleagues,  with  Professor  Bledsoe  as  acting  President,  completed 
the  work  of  the  session. 

The  records  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  show  the  following  entry  on  Mon- 
day, July  9,  1849:  "This  being  the  day  of  the  commencement  of  the  first 
annual  examinations  of  the  students  at  the  University,  the  Board  took  a 
recess  at  9  o'clock  A.  M.  and  attended  the  examinations  of  the  Freshman 
class  on  the  Latin  and  Greek  Languages,  and  at  3  P.  M.  the  Board  again 
took  a  recess  and  attended  the  examination  of  the  Freshman  class  on 
Mathematics,  which  closed  the  exercises  of  the  day." 

Similar  honor  was  paid  by  the  Board  to  the  Sophomore  class  the  next 
day.  On  Thursday,  July  12th,  1849,  "the  Board  took  a  recess  and  re- 
paired to  the  Presbyterian  church,  where  an  address  was  delivered  by 
the  Hon.  A.  M.  Clayton,  President  of  the  Board  of  Trustees,  and  a  com- 
mencement address  by  Prof.  A.  T.  Bledsoe,  President  pro  tern,  of  the 
Faculty,  in  the  presence  of  the  students  and  a  large  auditory." 

It  is  noteworthy,  and  probably  consistent  with  the  experiences  of  this 
first  session,  that  in  this  commencement  address  Prof.  Bledsoe  discusses 
total  depravity  as  a  factor  to  be  considered  in  educational  work.    Other 


UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI.  9 

exercises  at  this  first  commencement  consisted  of  "composition  and  decla- 
mation by  students."  There  was  no  class  more  advanced  than  the  Sopho- 
more. 

At  the  close  of  this  first  session  Dr.  Augustus  B.  Longstreet,  of 
Georgia,  was  elected  President  of  the  University. 

Under  the  wise  administration  of  the  Faculty  and  Trustees,  the  Uni- 
versity began  to  grow  rapidly  in  numbers,  and  in  the  confidence  of  the 
public.  The  statistical  information  set  forth  in  this  catalogue  will  show 
who  were  connected  with  the  institution  as  officers  and  students,  and 
will  indicate  something  of  the  extent  of  the  work  of  each  session.  In 
1856  President  Longstreet  resigned,  and  Prof.  F.  A.  P.  Barnard  was  elected 
to  succeed  him.  President  Barnard  was,  fortunately,  able  to  secure  from 
the  Legislature  funds  for  new  buildings  which  were  needed,  and  for  the 
larger  and  better  equipment  of  the  library  and  the  scientific  departments 
of  the  University.  The  wisdom  of  his  work  in  this  direction  was  proven 
by  the  fact  that  the  University  of  Mississippi  speedily  took  rank  as  one  of 
the  best  equipped  institutions  in  the  country.  The  value  of  the  prestige 
thus  attained  was  tangible  and  has  been  permanent. 

In  the  spring  of  1861  the  excitement  due  to  political  events  seriously 
interrupted  the  work  of  the  University.  Many  students  withdrew  before 
the  close  of  the  session,  in  order  to  enlist  in  the  Confederate  army.  A 
company  of  students,  which  has  become  historic,  was  organized  on  the 
campus  under  the  title  "University  Greys."  The  record  of  the  service 
of  this  company  of  students  is  shown  by  the  following  memorandum, 
furnished  by  Hon.  J.  L.  Power,  Secretary  of  State:

It  is  probable  that  four-fifths  of  all  the  young  men  whose  names  appear 
on  the  rolls  as  students  of  the  University,  from  its  organization  up  to  the 
beginning  of  the  civil  war,  enlisted  in  the  Confederate  service.  This  fact 
is  indicated  in  this  catalogue  with  regard  to  many  students  individually, 
and  such  indication  is  by  no  means  intended  to  show  that  others  did  not 
see  such  service.  A  very  large  proportion,  much  larger  than  the  average 
of  Confederate  soldiers,  sacrificed  their  lives  in  the  service  of  the  State. 


10  VNH  BRBITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI. 

At  the  close  of  the  session  in  the  spring  of  the  year  1S61  there  was  some 
expectation  that  the  exercises  might  be  resumed  in  the  fall.  At  the  ap- 
point oil  time  for  opening  the  next  session  only  four  students  appeared  for 
matriculation.  Realizing  that  the  civil  war  would  continue  indefinitely, 
all  the  members  of  the  Faculty  resigned  and  the  doors  of  the  institution 
were  closed.  During  the  civil  war  the  buildings  of  the  University  were 
occupied  sometimes  by  Confederate  and  sometimes  by  Federal  soldiery. 
Soon  after  the  battle  of  Shiloh  they  were  used  for  hospital  purposes,  and 
gave  their  shelter  to  some  1,500  sick  and  wounded  Confederate  soldiers. 
More  than  700  of  these  sleep  in  unmarked  graves  in  a  cemetery  near  the 
University  campus. 

When  the  University  buildings  were  occupied  by  Federal  soldiery  the 
personal  influence  of  the  late  Professors  Barnard,  Boynton  and  others 
who  were  in  the  North,  secured  the  interest  of  General  Grant  in  the  pro- 
tection of  the  apparatus  and  buildings  belonging  to  the  institution.  The 
close  of  the  civil  strife  found  the  University  buildings  and  other  materials 
but  little  damaged  by  the  vicissitudes  of  war.  In  the  summer  of  1865 
efforts  were  made  at  the  first  meeting  of  the  Legislature  to  reorganize 
the  institution,  and  the  first  session  after  the  war  opened  in  the  fall  of 
1865,  under  the  presidency  of  Rev.  John  N.  Waddel,  D.D.  Through  all 
the  vicissitudes  of  the  reconstruction  period  the  University  experienced 
the  same  good  fortune  which  had  attended  it  during  the  civil  war.  It 
has  constantly  grown  in  influence  and  prestige. 

The  statistical  tables  in  this  catalogue  and  other  data  herein  given 
will  sufficiently  indicate  the  work  and  progress  of  the  institution  under 
the  administration  of  Chancellors  John  N.  Waddel,  Alexander  P.  Stew- 
art, Edward  Mayes,  Robert  B.  Fulton,  and  up  to  the  present  time.  The 
necessarily  meagre  facts  stated  in  these  pages  in  regard  to  those  who  have 
been  students  in  the  institution  show  by  the  outcome  of  its  work  that  the 
institution  has  been  singularly  fortunate  in  the  cultivation  of  strong 
character.  This  is  undoubtedly  due  to  the  fact  that  its  policy  has  always 
been  to  secure  diligent  work  on  the  part  of  its  students  together  with 
manly  deportment. 

The  personnel  of  the  student  body  in  the  ante-bellum  days  was  entirely 
different  from  that  of  later  years.  When  it  is  remembered  that  the  per 
capita  distribution  of  wealth  in  Mississippi  was  larger  in  the  years  pre- 
ceding the  Civil  War  than  in  any  other  State,  it  will  be  understood  that 
the  student  body  was  composed  very  largely  of  the  sons  of  wealthy  par- 
ents, many  of  whom  did  not  realize  the  importance  of  work  and  study. 
But  the  record  of  the  lives  of  these  men  show  that  the  student  body  of 
this  period  has  furnished  to  the  State  many  of  the  noblest  patriots  and 
citizens. 

Immediately  after  the  Civil  War  the  halls  of  the  University  were  filled 
with  a  class  of  students  never  before  seen  in  any  American  college.  They 
were  the  sons  of  parents  who  had  been  wealthy  but  whose  wealth  had 
been  entirely  swept  away  by  the  Civil  War.  Perhaps  half  of  these  young 
men  had  served  in  the  Confederate  Army.  With  such  preparation  for 
college  as  these  circumstances  suggest  they  came  with  possibly  as  little

of  scholastic  attainments  as  those  students  who  entered  in  1848;  but  they 
came  with  a  determination  born  of  necessity.  The  efforts  put  forth  and 
the  influence  felt  while  here  resulted  in  the  development  of  a  type  of  manly 
character  and  power  which  cannot  be  equalled  by  the  records  of  any  other 
American  college.  A  study  of  the  lifework  of  this  group  of  students  fully 
verifies  this  strong  statement  as  fact. 

In  later  years  the  University  has  been  able  to  achieve  higher  advance- 
ment in  scholarship.  Its  preparatory  work  has  been  abolished.  It  has 
over  one  hundred  high  schools  affiliated  with  it  and  engaged  in  the  prepa- 
ration of  students  for  its  courses.  Its  student  body  in  late  years  has  been 
characterized  by  a  somewhat  broader  range  of  scholarship.  Every  effort 
is  made  to  keep  its  students  in  their  studies  and  in  all  that  enlists  their 
attention  fully  abreast  with  the  activities,  intellectual  and  other,  which 
characterize  college  life  at  the  beginning  of  the  twentieth  century. 

While  in  the  original  plan  of  the  University  the  establishment  of  a 
course  in  Governmental  Science  and  Law  was  provided  for,  six  years 
elapsed  before,  in  1854,  a  Law  Class  was  organized. 

Beginning  with  the  session  of  1882-3,  women  have  been  admitted  to 
the  University  upon  the  same  terms  and  conditions  as  men. 

In  1892  preparatory  courses  in  the  University  were  discontinued.  Since 
that  time  the  grade  of  educational  work  done  has  been  advanced  fully 
one  year,  the  number  of  bona  fide  college  students  has  increased  from  167 
to  nearly  500  (October,  1909). 

In  1900  the  Fanny  J.  Ricks  Summer  Term  of  the  University  began  a 
much  needed  work  for  those  who  cannot  attend  the  regular  session.  This 
work  was  maintained  in  the  summer  of  1900,  1901,  1902  and  1903  through 
the  liberality  of  Mrs.  Ricks.  Her  generosity  secured  additional  funds 
for  1903  which  greatly  enlarged  the  work  in  scope  and  usefulness. 

Courses  in  Engineering  were  organized  in  1900.  (Some  such  work  had 
been  offered  in  1872,  but  discontinued  in  1875.)  In  1903  Departments  of 
Education  and  Medicine  were  added.  As  yet  only  the  first  half  of  a  reg- 
ular four-year  course  in  Medicine  has  been  given.  Beginning  with  the 
session  of  1909-10  the  work  of  the  last  two  years  will  be  offered  at  Vicks- 
burg  in  connection  with  the  State  Charity  Hospital  of  that  place.  This 
property,  valued  at  $150,000.00,  was  acquired  by  the  University  in  1908. 
A  Department  of  Pharmacy  has  been  in  successful  operation  throughout 
the  current  session. 

In  1902  the  Legislature  appropriated  the  sum  of  $93,700  for  various 
improvements,  $24,000  of  this  being  for  current  expenses.  This  fund 
enabled  the  University  to  enlarge  greatly  its  facilities  and  advantages 
for  the  young  men  and  young  women  of  Mississippi.  With  it  were  con- 
structed substantial  additions  to  the  public  buildings  and  a  commodious 
dormitory  for  women  students.

With  the  liberal  appropriations  made  by  the  Legislatures  of  1904  and 
1906i  the  institution  has  added  much  to  its  equipment  and  thus  increased 
its  usefulness. 

The  Legislature  of  190S  made  the  University  the  largest  appropriation 
in  the  hitter's  history.  As  results,  a  large  and  thoroughly  equipped  dor- 
mitory for  men,  a  commodious  dining  hall,  and  a  new  power  house  have 
been  built;  the  light  and  heat  distributing  systems  have  been  renewed 
and  enlarged;  and  about  one-half  mile  of  wide  concrete  walks  have  been 
laid  where  most  needed  on  the  campus. 

The  following  named  have  served  as  the  chief  executive  officers  of  the 
University  under  the  titles  and  for  the  periods  indicated: 

Pre  si  dent— George  Frederick  Holmes,  LL.  D 1848-1849 

President— Augustus  B.  Longstreet,  LL.D.,  D.D 1849-1856 

President— Frederick  A.  P.  Barnard,  LL.D.,  D.D 1856-1859 

Chancellor— Frederick  A.  P.  Barnard,  LL.D.,  D.D 1859-1861 

Chancellor— John  Newton  Waddel,  LL.D.,  D.D 1865-1874 

Chancellor— Gen.  Aleaxnder  P.  Stewart 1874-1886 

Chairman  of  Faculty— Edw.  Mayes,  LL.D.,  F.S.C 1886-1889 

Chancellor— Edward  Mayes,  LL.D.,  F.S.C 1889-1891 

Vice-Chancellor— Robert  Burwell  Fulton,  A.M 1892-1892 

Chancellor— Robert  Burwell  Fulton,  A.M.,  LL.D 1892-1906 

Vice-Chancellor— Alfred  Hume,  C.E.,  D.Sc 1906-1907 

Chancellor — Andrew  Armstrong  Kincannon,  M.S.,  LL.D 1907- 

NOTE. — Chancellor  Mayes  resigned  January  1,  1892,  and  Vice-Chancellor  Fulton  acted  as 
Chancellor  until  the  end  of  the  session,  when  he  was  elected  to  the  Chancellorship. 

From  the  opening  of  the  University,  in  1848,  to  the  year  1870,  the  so- 
called  "close  curriculum"  was  in  use.  There  was  a  course  of  study,  en- 
tirely prescribed,  leading  to  the  degree  of  Bachelor  of  Arts,  and  a  pre- 
scribed course  leading  to  the  degree  of  Bachelor  of  Laws.  To  say  that  a 
student  was  a  "regular"  student  and  in  the  Freshman,  Sophomore,  Junior 
or  Senior  class,  was  to  define  precisely  his  work.  An  "irregular"  student 
was  one  not  in  the  line  of  progress  towards  a  degree,  but  taking  a  selected 
course  of  study.  There  was  no  department  of  preparatory  education  in 
the  University  previous  to  1861.  When  the  University  again  opened  its 
doors  in  the  fall  of  1865,  the  lack  of  educational  facilities  in  the  State  made 
it  advisable  to  establish  a  department  of  preparatory  education  in  the 
University,  and  this  was  continued  until  the  end  of  the  session  of  1893. 

The  "close  curriculum"  system  of  education  was  changed  by  action  of 
the  Board  of  Trustees,  taken  October  26,  1870.  By  this  action  each  stu- 
dent was  allowed  to  choose  one  of  these  courses  leading  to  a  degree: 

1.  A  defined  course  of  four  years'  extent,  leading  to  the  degree  of 
Bachelor  of  Arts,  and  similar  in  its  requirements  to  the  course  previously 
offered. 

2.  A  defined  course  of  three  years'  extent,  leading  to  the  degree  of 
Bachelor  of  Science. 

3.  A  defined  course  of  three  years'  extent,  leading  to  the  degree  of 
Bachelor  of  Philosophy. 


UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI.  13 

4.  A  defined  course  of  four  years'  extent,  leading  to  the  degree  of  Civil 
Engineer. 

There  were  also  offered — 

5.  Several  definite  Post-graduate  courses,  requiring  one  or  more  years 
for  completion,  open  to  Bachelors  of  Arts,  and  leading  to  the  degree  of 
Master  of  Arts. 

6.  Several  definite  Post-graduate  courses,  requiring  at  least  two  years 
for  completion,  open  to  Bachelors  of  Arts,  and  leading  to  the  degree  of 
Doctor  of  Philosophy. 

Since  1870  various  changes  have  been  made  in  the  courses  and  degrees 
offered,  suggested  by  the  experience  of  this  and  other  institutions  doing 
similar  work.  All  of  these  changes  have  tended  to  give  greater  thor- 
oughness and  larger  extent  to  the  work  done  by  any  student  in  earning  a 
degree.  In  1873  the  course  for  Bachelor  of  Science  was  made  a  four  years' 
course,  and,  in  1875,  the  course  for  Bachelor  of  Philosophy  became  in  fact 
a  four  years'  course,  and  its  topics  of  study  largely  elective.  Election  of 
studies  was  gradually  allowed  to  a  considerable  extent  in  the  courses  for 
B.A.  and  B.S.  until  1889.  In  1889  Latin,  Greek,  English  and  Mathe- 
matics were  made  the  characteristic  studies  of  the  B.A.  course;  Mathe- 
matics and  the  Natural  Sciences  of  the  B.  S.  course,  and  the  Bachelor  of 
Philosophy  course  was  made  entirely  elective. 

At  present  the  University  offers  courses  leading  to  the  degrees  Bachelor 
of  Science,  Bachelor  of  Arts,  Master  of  Arts,  Bachelor  of  Laws,  Bachelor  of 
Engineering,  Bachelor  of  Science  (in  Education),  Bachelor  of  Arts  (in  Edu- 
cation), Doctor  of  Medicine,  Graduate  in  Pharmacy,  Bachelor  of  Pharmacy. 

The  course  for  a  bachelor's  degree  in  the  Academic  Department  re- 
quires the  successful  completion  of  sixty-five  (65)  units  of  work,  a  unit  of 
work  being  defined  to  be  the  amount  involved  in  attendance  upon  lectures  or 
recitations  for  one  hour  a  week  for  one  session,  or  upon  laboratory  work  for 
two  hours  a  week  for  one  session.  The  student's  graduating  thesis  is  counted 
as  equivalent  to  one  unit,  and  by  systematic  attendance  upon  physical 
culture  in  the  gymnasium,  not  less  than  three  hours  a  week  during  a  ses- 
sion, he  may  reduce  the  number  of  points  required  for  graduation  by  one 
for  each  of  three  sessions,  making  it  possible  to  graduate  thus  with  sixty- 
one  (61)  units  of  class-room  work  instead  of  sixty-five  (65).  The  courses 
of  study  leading  to  a  bachelor's  degree  are  so  arranged  that  sixteen  (16) 
units  will  normally  constitute  full  work  for  a  student.  With  this  amount 
he  would  graduate  in  four  years. 

No  student  will  be  permitted  to  take  less  than  thirteen  (13)  units  of 
work,  except  in  very  special  cases.  No  student  having  less  than  forty- 
five  (45)  points  to  his  credit  will  be  permitted  to  take  more  than  eighteen 
(18)  units  of  work. 

In  the  Department  of  Science,  Literature  and  the  Arts,  the  work  of 
the  course  leading  to  a  bachelor's  degree  consists  of  (1)  Prescribed  Studies, 
(2)  Group  Eleclives  and  (3)  Free  Electives.  The  Prescribed  Studies  as  below 
indicated  amount  to  twenty-eight  (28)  units  of  work.  The  Group  Electives 
amount  to  from  eighteen  (18)  to  twenty-two  (22)  units,  and  the  remainder 
of  the  course  will  allow  about  fifteen  (15)  units  to  be  made  by  Free  Elect- 
ees. 


14  I  fflVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI. 

(.1)  Prescribed  Studies.  Each  candidate  for  a  bachelor's  degree  must 
have  placed  to  his  credit  on  entrance,  or  complete  in  the  University  classes 
such  college  work  in  the  following  subjects  as  will  entitle  him  to  credit 
for  the  units  indicated,  which  will  be  counted  towards  making  the  total 
number  of  units  required  for  graduation;  provided,  such  work  has  not 
been  counted  for  points  of  admission. 

English  and  Rhetoric 5  units. 

Two  Foreign  Languages  (at  least  three  units  in  each 

of  two) 6  units. 

History 2  units. 

Logic,  Ethics  or  Psychology 2  units. 

Mathematics 5  units. 

Physics 2  units. 

Chemistry 2  units. 

Physiology,  Botany,  Zoology 2  units. 

Political  Economy  or  Sociology 2  units. 

(2)  Group  Electives.  Each  candidate  for  a  bachelor's  degree  is  required 
to  take  either  two  or  three  of  the  twenty  (20)  courses  indicated  below  and 
to  take  in  them  such  an  amount  of  work  as  will  entitle  him  to  receive 
credit  for  a  total  of  from  eighteen  (18)  to  twenty-two  (22)  units,  besides 
counting  the  credits  he  may  have  received  in  the  same  topics  as  Prescribed 
Studies.  If  he  elects  two,  he  is  required  to  do  from  nine  to  eleven  units 
in  each.  If  he  elects  three,  he  is  required  to  do  from  six  to  eight  units  in 
each. 

1.  Astronomy  and  Physics. 

2.  Biology. 

3.  Chemistry. 

4.  Drawing.

(3)  Free  Electives.  The  Prescribed  Studies  and  the  Group  Electives 
taken  together  amount  to  from  forty-six  (46)  to  fifty  (50)  units.  Students 
will  select  the  remainder  of  their  work  in  Free  Electives.    If  a  student 


UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI.  15 

completes  all  the  work  prescribed  as  a  course  for  one  class  in  one  school  in 
one  session,  he  may  count  such  at  its  face  value  in  units  and  as  a  Free  Elect- 
ive. The  courses  that  may  be  counted  as  Free  Electives  are  marked  with 
the  letters  a,  b,  c,  d,  and  designating  numbers  in  the  Detailed  Statements 
made  later  regarding  the  different  schools  in  the  University. 

Not  more  than  ten  (10)  units  of  work  in  any  one  professional  depart- 
ment may  be  counted  as  a  Free  Elective  for  either  the  B.S.  or  the  B.A. 
degree. 

No  Academic  student  may  elect  professional  studies  until  he  is  en- 
titled to  classification  as  a  Junior  in  the  Academic  Department. 

For  the  past  two  sessions  twelve  (12)  Carnegie  units  have  been  required 
for  full  admission  to  the  Academic  Department  of  the  University.  Be- 
ginning with  1910-11  the  requirement  will  be  fourteen  (14)  such  units. 


ACADEMIC  DEPARTMENT. 


PHILOSOPHY,  LOGIC,  SOCIOLOGY  AND  POLITICAL  ECONOMY. 

In  the  history  of  the  University  the  subjects  included  in  this  depart- 
ment have  been  variously  assigned.  During  the  earlier  period  instruc- 
tion was  given  in  them  largely  by  the  Presidents  and  Chancellors,  who, 
from  the  number  and  variety  of  the  subjects  committed  to  their  charge, 
must  have  been  men  of  marvelously  versatile  endowment.  The  cata- 
logue of  1853-54  contains  the  following: 

"Augustus  B.  Longstreet,  LL.D.,  President  and  Professor  of  Mental 
and  Moral  Science,  Rhetoric,  Logic,  Political  Economy,  International 
Law  and  Evidences  of  Christianity."  In  later  years  separate  and  dis- 
tinct Professorships  were  provided  for  these  subjects  and,  with  minor 
changes  from  time  to  time,  they  have  been  given  prominence  in  the  course 
of  instruction. 

About  the  year  1855  there  was  organized  the  chair  of  Metaphysics  and 
Ethics,  the  first  incumbent  of  which  was  Rev.  N.  M.  Crawford,  D.D,  of 
Georgia,  who  filled  the  chair  for  only  one  year,  having  been  called  to  the 
Presidency  of  Georgetown  College,  Kentucky.  This  chair  was  subse- 
quently filled  by  Rev.  Geo.  W.  Carter,  D.D.  (1857-60)  and  by  Hon.  L.  Q.  C. 
Lamar,  LL.D.  (1860-61),  the  latter  of  whom  was  again  called  to  the  chair 
of  Ethics  in  1866. 

In  connection  with  the  School  of  Metaphysics  and  Ethics  there  occurred 
in  the  very  infancy  of  the  institution  an  incident  which  doubtless,  in  no 
unimportant  degree,  influenced  and  determined  the  character  of  work 
to  be  done  by  the  University  throughout  the  whole  of  its  existence.  In 
one  of  the  first  meetings  of  the  Board  of  Trustees  a  proposition  was  offered 
to  exclude  forever  from  the  course  of  study  the  subject  of  Evidences  of 
Christianity.  This  proposition  provoked  a  prolonged  and  heated  dis- 
cussion, a  result  of  which  was  the  resignation  of  one  member  of  the  Board, 
who  in  his  letter  of  resignation  took  occasion  to  make  a  bitter  assault 


16  i  NIYBRSITY  OF   MIB8IB8JPPI. 

upon  the  Christian  religion.  Happily,  however,  an  overwhelming  ma- 
jority of  the  Board  were  favorable  to  the  admission  of  the  subject  into 
the  curriculum,  and  the  result  of  the  controversy  was  to  stamp  the  Uni- 
versity as  a  Christian,  though  in  no  sense  as  a  sectarian  institution. 

In  1888  there  was  established  the  chair  of  Metaphysics,  Logic  and  Po- 
litical Science,  which  was  filled  successively  by  Gen.  Francis  A.  Shoup» 
Rev.  James  A.  Lyon,  D.D,  and  Rev.  J.  J.  Wheat,  D.D,  until  1886.  In 
1889  the  title  and  scope  of  the  department  was  again  changed  so  as  to 
include  the  subject  of  Mental  and  Moral  Philosophy,  Logic,  History  and 
Political  Economy.  Under  this  organization  the  department  has  con- 
tinued until  the  present  time,  with  the  exception  that  in  1897  the  subject 
of  History  was  severed  and  made  a  separate  school. 


MATHEMATICS. 

The  influence  of  the  United  States  Military  Academy  is  evident  through- 
out the  first  forty  years  of  the  history  of  the  School  of  Mathematics  in  the 
University  of  Mississippi.  The  comparatively  small  sections  into  which 
classes  were  divided,  the  text-books  used,  the  character  of  the  curriculum, 
the  large  amount  of  individual  work  on  the  part  of  students  at  the  black- 
board, the  rigid  discipline  and  thorough  training,  all  bear  abundant  tes- 
timony to  the  truth  of  this  assertion.  The  record  of  these  earlier  years 
is  altogether  honorable. 

The  mathematical  requirements  for  admission  to  the  Freshman  class 
embraced  nothing  beyond  arithmetic  until  the  end  of  the  first  decade 
from  the  opening  of  the  University  in  1848.  Then  rudimentary  Algebra 
was  added.  After  the  Civil  War  the  amount  of  Algebra  was  materially 
increased,  sometimes  including  Quadratic  Equations  but  more  often 
omitting  that  subject.  The  standard  for  entrance  was  raised  again  in 
1891  by  the  addition  of  three  books  of  Plane  Geometry.  Since  1906  Alge- 
bra through  the  Progressions,  and  all  of  Plane  Geometry  have  been  re- 
quired for  admission.  Consequently  the  course  of  study  now  is  at  least 
one  year  in  advance  of  that  before  the  war.  Trigonometry  was  then  in 
the  last  term  of  the  Sophomore  year,  its  place  at  present  being  in  the 
Freshman;  Analytics  was  in  the  Junior,  now  in  the  Sophomore;  Calculus 
in  the  Senior,  now  in  the  Sophomore  and  Junior.  For  many  years  De- 
scriptive Geometry  was  a  part  of  the  course  in  pure  Mathematics.  This 
subject  is  now  offered  in  the  Engineering  Department. 

As  already  suggested,  most  of  the  text-books  in  use  until  twenty  years 
ago  bore  the  stamp  of  West  Point.  The  works  of  Davies,  Church,  Mahan, 
and  Bartlett,  particularly  the  first,  were  favorites.  Davies'  Bourdon 
and  Davies'  Legendre,  in  older  and  later  editions,  were  continued  from 
session  to  session.  In  more  recent  years  the  text-books  given  in  the  fol- 
lowing list  have  been  used.  The  authors'  names  appear  in  the  order  in 
which  their  books  were  introduced.  The  parentheses  denote  the  one  in 
use  at  present: 

Algebra — Venable,   Wentworth,    Downey,    Hawkes,    (Wentworth). 
Geometry— Venable,  Wentworth,  Bowser,  Wells  (Wentworth). 


UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI.  17 

Trigonometry — Wentworth,  Bowser,  Crockett,  Phillips  and  Strong 
(Wentworth). 

AnalyticalGeometry-Puckle,  Bowser,  Hardy,  Nichols,  Ashton,  (Nichols) 

Calculus — Todhunter,  Courtenay,  Bowser,  Hardy,  Nicholson,  Taylor. 
Nichols,  Granville  (Osborne). 

In  addition  to  the  regular  undergraduate  work,  courses  have  been  given 
to  small  groups  of  graduate  students  in  Weld's  Determinants,  Osborne's 
Examples  of  Differential  Equations,  Johnson's  Differential  Equations, 
Pierce's  Newtonian  Potential  Function,  Merriman's  Least  Squares,  Wil- 
liamson's Advanced  Calculus,  C.  Smith's  Solid  Analytical  Geometry, 
Williamson's  Dynamics,  Bowser's  Analytical  Mechanics,  Routh's  Rigid 
Dynamics.

This  accounl  of  the  School  of  Mathematics  would  be  very  unsatisfac- 
tory and  incomplete  without  brief  biographical  sketches  of  the  men  who 

made  its  history.     To  record  these  is  a  pleasant  duty. 

A.LBEBT  TAYI.OK  BLEDSOE,    M.A..   1.I..1). 

Bom  in  Kentucky  in  1808;  appointed  to  a  cadetship  in  the  United 
States  Military  Academy  in  1825  and  graduated  therefrom  in  1830;  saw 
military  service  two  years;  in  1833  became  Professor  of  Mathematics  in 
Ki  nyon  College,  Gambier,  Ohio;  after  serving  there  two  years,  filled  the 
ohair  of  Mathematics  in  Miami  University,  and  from  1840  to  1S48  prac- 
ticed law  in  Springfield,  Illinois;  elected  Professor  of  Mathematics  and 
Astronomy  in  the  University  of  Mississippi  in  1848,  there  being  about 
fifty  candidates  for  this  position;  resigned  in  1854  and  became  Professor 
of  Mathematics  in  the  University  of  Virginia,  continuing  as  such  until 
1861;  Assistant  Secretary  of  War  of  the  Confederate  States;  after  the 
war  resided  in  Baltimore  as  editor  of  the  Southern  Revieiv,  dying  in  1877. 

While  Bledsoe  was  a  profound  mathematician,  he  was  even  more  a 
theologian  and  philosopher.  His  writings  fully  justify  this  statement. 
As  early  as  1845  he  published  a  work  entitled  "An  Examination  of  Presi- 
dent Edwards  on  the  Will."  About  ten  years  later  his  "Theodicy,  or 
Vindication  of  the  Divine  Glory"  was  published.  His  "Philosophy  of 
Mathematics"  is  of  special  interest  to  the  student  of  the  calculus. 

It  was  during  Professor  Bledsoe's  incumbency  of  the  chair  of  Mathe- 
matics that  L.  Q.  C.  Lamar  was  Adjunct  Professor  of  Mathematics.  Sel- 
dom have  two  such  massive  and  brilliant  intellects  been  so  closely  asso- 
ciated in  the  same  work.

HENRY  AUBREY   STRODE.    M.A. 

Born  in  Fredericksburg,  Virginia,  February  14,  1844;  soldier  Brax- 
ton's Battery,  Fredericksburg  Artillery,  Confederate  States  Army,  1861- 
1865. 

After  the  war  attended  the  University  of  Virginia  where  he  was  awarded 
the  Courtenay  Medal  in  mathematics;  became  Assistant  Professor  of 
Mathematics  at  Richmond  College,  Richmond,  Virginia. 

In  1872  established  the  Kenmore  High  School  at  Amherst,  Virginia, 
of  which  he  continued  as  Principal  until  the  year  1889,  when  he  accepted 
the  Professorship  of  Mathematics  in  the  University  of  Mississippi,  which 
he  filled  during  the  session  1889-90;  during  a  part  of  this  session  was  also 
the  acting  Professor  of  Chemistry. 

In  1890  he  became  the  first  Preside'nt  of  Clemson  Agricultural  College, 
the  Agricultural  and  Mechanical  College  of  South  Carolina,  and  held  this 
position  until  1893;  was  also  Professor  of  Mathematics  in  Clemson  Col- 
lege until  1896,  when  he  resigned,  because  of  failing  health,  and  returned 
to  Virginia,  where  he  died  on  September  1,  1898. 

PHYSICS  AND  ASTRONOMY. 

The  School  of  Physics,  originally  called  Natural  Philosophy,  was 
one  of  the  first  provided  for  at  the  University  of  Mississippi.  For  sev- 
eral years  it  was  combined  with  Chemistry.  Dr.  John  Millington,  one  of 
the  four  original  members  of  the  Faculty,  was  elected  head  of  this  de- 
partment in  July,  1848,  and  reported  for  duty  the  6th  of  November  fol- 
lowing, this  being  the  day  designated  for  the  formal  opening. 

Dr.  Millington  was  born,  reared  and  educated  in  England.  He  worked 
several  years  in  the  Royal  Institution  of  London  under  Michael  Faraday 
and  Sir  Humphrey  Davy,  and  brought  over  with  him  a  considerable  sup- 
ply of  physical  and  chemical  apparatus,  much  of  which,  especially  such 
as  was  used  for  original  research  in  Electricity,  was  of  the  same  kind, 


20  '  \/I7.7,'n/7V  OF  MISSISSIPPI. 

and  possibly  the  identical  patterns  used  by  Faraday  and  Davy.  Many 
pieces  of  this  interesting  apparatus,  which  was  purchased  from  Dr.  Mil- 
lington  by  the  University,  may  yet  be  seen  in  the  Physical  Laboratory, 
marked  I.  M.  for  John  Millington,  the  I.  before  vowels  in  old  print,  being 
supplanted  by  J.  in  modern  print.  He  was  recognized  as  an  elegant  and 
scholarly  English  gentleman,  well  versed  in  science  both  practical  and 
theoretical.  He  was  author  of  a  treatise  on  Mechanics,  and  also  of  one 
on  Civil  Engineering.  During  his  five  years  of  service  he  never  failed  to 
secure  and  retain  the  respect  and  even  the  affection  of  his  classes,  as  well 
as  the  unswerving  confidence  and  loyal  admiration  of  his  associates  and 
neighbors.  He  resigned  in  1853  and  was  succeeded  by  Rev.  J.  C.  Keeny, 
who,  on  request  of  his  class,  resigned  at  the  end  of  his  first  session.  In 
1854  Dr.  Frederick  Augustus  Porter  Barnard  took  charge  of  Natural 
Philosophy  in  connection  with  his  Mathematics.  On  entering  upon  his 
work  he  at  once  proved,  by  his  brilliant  lectures  and  active  participation 
in  original  research,  that  a  master  mind  was  in  charge  of  the  science  work. 
Realizing  that  appropriations  of  money  were  necessary  for  building  up  his 
own,  as  well  as  the  other  departments  of  the  University,  he  turned  a  large 
part  of  his  attention  to  investigating  an  old  claim  that  the  University 
held  against  the  State  for  lands  donated  by  the  Federal  Government  for 
establishing  a  seminary  fund.  He  analyzed  the  claim,  made  a  careful 
calculation  of  the  alleged  indebtedness,  together  with  accrued  interest, 
and  accurately  presented  the  whole  matter  in  a  public  address  before  the 
Mississippi  Legislature.  The  result  was  ultimately  liberal  appropria- 
tions to  the  University,  sufficient  to  add  several  new  buildings  and  to 
make  a  large  increase  in  apparatus  and  general  equipments.  In  1856  he 
was  elected  President  of  the  University  to  succeed  Augustus  B.  Long- 
street,  resigned.  Three  years  after  his  election  the  title  was  changed 
from  President  to  that  of  Chancellor.  Dr.  Barnard  possessed  many 
eminent  qualities  as  chief  executive,  but  as  his  service  as  Chancellor  are 
described  in  another  part  of  this  book  I  shall  not  further  pursue  the 
subject  here,  but  refer  the  reader  for  details  to  that  article. 

The  University  closed  its  doors  for  four  years  during  the  war,  from 
June,  1861,  to  October,  1865.  Doubtless  the  buildings  had  been  spared 
by  the  Federal  troops  through  the  personal  influence  of  Dr.  Barnard  with 
General   Grant. 

October  the  25th,  1865,  General  Francis  Asbury  Shoup  was  elected 
Professor  of  Physics,  Astronomy  and  Civil  Engineering.  This  heavy 
work  he  did  with  credit  till  January,  1867,  when  he  was  relieved  of  Physics 
and  Astronomy,  but  continued  the  other  work  till  1868,  when  he  was  offered 
the  new  chair  of  Metaphysics,  Aesthetics,  Logic  and  Political  Philosophy. 
This  he  accepted,  but  the  following  year  he  resigned  and  left,  much  to 
the  regret  of  the  authorities  of  the  University.  I  am  indebted  to  his  wife 
for  the  facts  in  the  following  brief  sketch: 

Francis  Asbury  Shoup  was  born  in  Connersville,  Indiana,  the  22d  of 
March,  1835;  graduated  at  West  Point  in  1856;  commissioned  immed- 
iately as  Lieutenant  and  sent  in  command  of  artillery  to  Sullivan's  Island, 
South  Carolina.     In  1859  he  resigned  and  returned  to  his  home  in  Indian-

apolis,  intending  to  practice  law.  Owing  to  excitement  caused  by  the 
John  Brown  Raid,  he  was  enthusiastically  elected  and  served  as  Captain 
of  Zouaves  from  Indianapolis.  His  love  and  admiration,  however,  for  the 
South  impelled  him,  in  1860,  to  resign  his  Federal  commission  and  tender 
his  services,  early  the  next  year,  to  the  newly  formed  Confederate  Govern- 
ment at  Montgomery,  Alabama.  He  was  commissioned  Major  in  the 
Corps  of  Engineers  and  assigned  to  duty  first  in  Mobile,  later  in  the  Trans- 
Mississippi  Department,  and  finally  in  Vicksburg.  After  the  siege  and 
fall  of  Vicksburg,  he  was  commissioned  Brigadier-General,  and  served 
with  General  Joseph  E.  Johnston  in  the  famous  Dalton  Campaign.  His 
fortifications  around  Atlanta  and  his  redoubts  on  the  Chattahoochee 
were  pronounced  a  remarkable  feat  in  engineering. 

As  stated  above  he  was  elected  Professor  in  the  University  of  Missis- 
sippi at  its  reorganization  after  the  war.  In  1868  he  took  orders  in  the 
Episcopal  Church  and  was  ordained  Priest  by  Bishop  Green.  He  served 
St.  Peter's  Church  in  Oxford  as  Rector,  in  addition  to  his  regular  duties 
as  Professor  in  the  University.  In  1869  he  was  elected  Professor  of  Mathe- 
matics in  the  University  of  the  South  at  Sewanee,  Tennessee.  This  he 
accepted  after  giving  four  years  of  most  efficient  service  to  the  University 
of  Mississippi.  In  his  new  chair  he  continued  to  grow  in  usefulness  and 
reputation,  becoming  the  author  of  a  valuable  treatise  on  Algebra  and  a 
very  popular  work  on  Psychology.  He  died  in  1896,  loved  and  admired 
by  all  who  knew  him.  As  a  mark  of  respect,  the  Daughters  of  the  Con- 
federacy have  erected  a  granite  shaft  over  his  grave. 

Dr.  Landon  Cabell  Garland  was  elected  January  the  21st,  1867,  to  the 
chair  of  Theoretical  Physics  and  of  Astronomy.  He  had  been  for  some 
years  previous  to  the  war  and  during  its  continuance,  President  of  the 
University  of  Alabama.  Being,  however,  a  close  student  of  science,  he 
was  pleased  to  have  simply  a  professorship  in  his  favorite  field  of  research 
and  to  be  free  from  the  perplexing  administrative  duties  of  President. 
Having  the  duties  of  two  chairs  upon  him,  however,  he  was  not  given 
time  or  opportunity  for  extensive  research.  He  was  noted  as  a  lucid  and 
very  attractive  lecturer  before  his  classes,  as  well  as  a  most  scholarly  and 
cultured  Southern  gentleman.  His  influence  in  the  university  commu- 
nity was  measured  not  alone  by  his  scholarship,  which  was  recognized  by 
all  as  being  of  the  highest  type,  but  also  by  the  magnetic  personality  of 
the  man  as  a  citizen,  a  neighbor  and  a  friend.  His  example  of  upright 
living,  dignity  of  bearing,  cordiality  in  friendship,  urbanity  toward  strang- 
ers, his  fairness,  truthfulness,  and  honesty  in  every  kind  of  dealing,  his 
devotion  to  his  own  church  and  liberality  toward  all  other  churches,  his 
hospitality  in  his  home  as  the  head  of  a  most  cultured,  elegant  and  pious 
family,  his  scrupulous  concern  for  his  own  professional  and  private  affairs, 
and  his  absolute  non-participation  in  those  of  others,  his  splendid  equi- 
poise of  temperament — never  sportive — never  gloomy— all  these  and 
many  other  virtues  made  his  presence  a  comfort  to  his  friends  and  a  bene- 
faction to  the  community.  During  the  session  of  1874-75  he  was  elected 
Chancellor  of  the  new  Vanderbilt  University.  Certain  of  our  Faculty 
agreed  to  an  exchange  of  hours  so  as  to  enable  him  to  finish  his  course  by

the  first  of  April,  as  he  was  under  promise  to  start  about  that  time  to 
Europe  to  purchase  physical  and  chemical  apparatus  for  the  Vanderbilt 
University  to  be  in  readiness  for  the  opening  in  the  following  autumn. 
Before  his  departure  the  Methodist  congregation  asked  him  to  deliver  a 
farewell  address  to  the  young  men  of  the  town  and  of  the  University  in 
the  M.  E.  Church.  He  consented,  and  chose  as  his  subject  Psalms  119:9, 
"Wherewithal  shall  a  young  man  cleanse  his  way?  By  taking  heed  thereto 
according  to  thy  word."  Few  farewell  addresses,  I  presume,  have  ever 
been  delivered  that  left  more  lasting  impressions  or  more  tender  memo- 
ries. Thus  Dr.  Garland  left  Mississippi  as  admirable  in  character  as  he 
was   brilliant  in  intellect. 

The  following  is  a  more  accurate  sketch  from  the  pen  of  his  daughter, 
Mrs.  Rose  G.  Lewis,  of  Tuscaloosa,  Alabama: 

"Landon  Cabell  Garland  was  born  at  his  father's  home,  known  as  'The 
Grove,'  in  Nelson  County,  Virginia,  on  the  21st  of  March,  1810.  He  came 
from  a  long  line  of  distinguished  ancestry  on  both  his  father's  and  his 
mother's  side.  He  was  the  son  of  Spotswood  Garland,  a  lawyer  and  Clerk 
of  the  Court  of  Nelson  County  for  more  than  forty  years — a  grandson  of 
Capt.  James  Garland,  an  officer  in  the  Revolutionary  army.  An  earlier 
ancestor  was  'Warden  of  the  Cinque  Ports,'  one  of  the  highest  and  most 
important  offices  in  the  gift  of  the  English  King.  His  mother  was  Lu- 
anda Rose,  daughter  of  Hugh  Rose,  of  Geddes,  a  son  of  the  celebrated 
Dr.  Robert  Rose,  who  came  from  Scotland  to  America  in  1725. 

"He  was  sent  to  the  best  preparatory  schools  which  the  country  afford- 
ed, and  entered  the  Sophomore  class  at  Hampden-Sidney  College,  Vir- 
ginia, in  October,  1826.  In  all  departments  of  learning  he  took  the  highest 
rank  and  graduated  with  first  honor  in  a  large  and  talented  class.  His 
father's  intention  was  to  send  him  to  a  law  school,  but  he  had  exhibited 
such  a  tatse  for  mathematical  and  scientific  pursuits,  and  had  made  such 
large  attainments  in  Chemistry  beyond  the  ordinary  course  of  college 
instruction  as  to  warrant  his  friend,  Dr.  John  H.  Price,  President  of  the 
Union  Theological  Seminary,  who  had  been  cognizant  of  his  rare  scien- 
tific ability,  to  recommend  his  appointment  to  the  tutorship  of  Chemistry 
in  Washington  College,  located  at  Lexington,  Virginia.  This  wras  done 
without  Mr.  Garland's  knowledge,  and  a  week  or  two  before  he  graduated. 
Being  but  nineteen  years  of  age,  he  felt  it  his  duty  to  submit  the  matter 
to  the  decision  of  his  father.  His  father  consented  to  the  acceptance  of 
the  appointment,  provided  that  after  two  or  three  years  he  should  turn 
his  attention  to  the  law.  Accordingly  he  went  to  Lexington  in  Novem- 
ber, 1829.  The  manner  in  which  he  discharged  the  duties  of  his  office 
gave  such  satisfaction  to  the  Board  of  Trustees  that  at  the  expiration  of 
the  scholastic  year  he  was  unanimously  elected  Professor  of  Chemistry 
and  Natural  Philosophy.  This  appointment  changed  his  destiny  in  life. 
Becoming  more  and  more  wedded  to  the  sciences,  with  each  returning 
year,  he  finally  abandoned  all  idea  of  making  law  his  profession,  and  de- 
voted himself  to  the  business  of  collegiate  instruction. 

"While  Mr.  Garland  expended  his  labor  chiefly  upon  the  mathematics, 
pure  and  mixed,  and  the  sciences  of  Chemistry,  Geology  and  Botany,  he

was  assiduous  in  the  -cultivation  of  languages,  and  used  the  Latin  and 
Greek  and  several  modern  languages  in  the  prosecution  of  his  professional 
studies.  He  valued  the  Greek  language  chiefly  for  the  original  study  of 
the  New  Testament,  and  in  time  attained  to  very  considerable  distinction 
as  a  biblical  critic.  This  is  attested  by  his  contributions  to  the  current 
religious  literature  of  the  day.  (See  sketch  by  Dr.  Charles  Foster  Smith 
and  others.) 

"Mr.  Garland  was  brought  up  in  sympathy  with  the  Methodist  Church, 
of  which  both  his  parents  were  members.  When  Randolph-Macon  Col- 
lege was  put  in  operation  during  the  winter  of  1833-34,  Mr.  Garland  was 
unanimously  elected  to  the  chair  of  Natural  Philosophy  and  Chemistry. 
His  inclinations  all  led  him  to  remain  at  Lexington.  His  situation  was 
entirely  agreeable,  and  he  had  won  the  esteem  and  confidence  of  that 
community.  But,  impelled  by  a  sense  of  duty  to  the  Church  of  his  father 
and  mother,  he  accepted  the  situation  to  which  the  Church  had  called 
him,  with  a  much  smaller  salary  than  he  had  been  receiving.  There  was 
no  class  at  the  organization  of  the  institution  in  the  department  of  Nat- 
ural Philosophy  and  Chemistry,  but  as  the  Professor-elect  of  Ancient 
Languages  could  not  attend  during  the  first  session  of  the  scholastic  year, 
Mr.  Garland  discharged  all  the  duties  of  this  chair  with  an  ability  that 
showed  that  he  was  as  much  at  home  in  philology  as  he  was  in  science. 
On  December  the  29th,  1835,  he  was  married  to  Louisa  Francis  Garland 
(a  third  cousin),  daughter  of  David  S.  Garland  and  his  wife,  Jane  Henry 
Meredith,  a  niece  of  Patrick  Henry,  the  statesman  and  orator.  The 
health  of  Dr.  Olin,  the  President  of  Randolph-Macon,  was  so  feeble  as  to 
induce  his  physicians  to  recommend  a  European  tour.  He  obtained  from 
the  Board  of  Trustees  an  indefinite  leave  of  absence,  recommending  to 
them  to  invest  Mr.  Garland,  though  the  youngest  of  the  Faculty,  with 
the  responsibility  of  the  Vice-Presidency  of  the  institution. 

"After  Dr.  Olin's  return  to  America,  considering  a  Southern  climate 
unfavorable  to  his  health,  he  resigned  the  presidency  of  Randolph-Macon, 
whereupon  the  board  unanimously  elected  Mr.  Garland  to  the  office 
His  duties  were  very  onerous  and  taxing,  and  while  he  faithfully  dis- 
charged them,  he  undertook  the  preparation  of  a  series  of  mathematical 
text-books,  doing  most  of  the  work  at  night.  All  this  combined  to  some- 
what undermine  a  naturally  good  constitution,  and  in  the  fall  of  1846  he 
resigned  his  position  with  the  intention  of  practicing  law.  To  prepare 
for  this  profession  he  returned  to  his  father's  house,  who  was  then  living 
in  Lovingston,  Nelson  County,  Virginia,  and  turned  the  whole  energy  of 
his  disciplined  mind  to  the  study  of  law.  He  possessed  a  fine  voice  and 
oratorical  power,  and,  no  doubt,  would  have  soon  risen  to  the  height  of 
this  profession.  But  the  institutions  of  the  country  could  not  spare  from 
the  difficult  and  delicate  work  of  collegiate  training  one  who  had  proved 
himself  so  eminently  fitted  for  it.  The  venerable  college  of  William  and 
Mary  made  an  effort  to  secure  his  services  as  President,  and  other  insti- 
tutions did  the  same  thing.  However,  before  he  had  entered  upon  the 
practice  of  law  he  was  invited  to  the  chair  of  English  Literature,  Rhet- 
oric and  History  in  the  University  of  Alabama.    Thither  he  removed  in

the  winter  of  IS  17  -IS.  A  year  or  two  after  his  connection  with  the  Uni- 
versity, the  chair  of  -Mathematics  (pure  and  mixed)  became  vacant,  to 
which,  at  his  own  request,  he  was  transferred.  In  this  chair  his  services 
were  eminently  useful,  until  about  the  year  1854  the  President  of  the  Uni- 
versity, Dr.  Basil  Manly,  retired  on  account  of  ill  health,  whereupon  Dr. 
Garland  was  elected  to  fill  his  place.  This  threw  upon  him  the  duty  of 
lecturing  on  Mental  and  Moral  and  Political  Philosophy.  Upon  these 
studies  Dr.  Garland  entered  with  great  energy  and  untiring  zeal,  and 
regretted  that  he  had  not  at  an  earlier  period  given  these  subjects  the 
large  attention  he  was  then  enabled  to  give.  He  considered  them  the 
most  useful  in  the  culture  of  the  mind.  Dr.  Garland  continued  his  con- 
nection with  the  University  of  Alabama,  as  its  President,  up  to  the  time 
of  its  destruction  by  the  raiding  party  of  General  Croxton,  April,  1S65. 
The  Faculty  scattered  in  various  directions,  but  his  services  were  re- 
tained for  about  a  year,  to  raise  a  fund  with  which  to  rebuild  the  univer- 
sity. He  was  then  called  to  the  chair  of  Physics  and  Astronomy  in  the 
University  of  Mississippi.  Here  he  remained  till  he  could  see  the  ardent 
desire  of  all  his  mature  years  about  to  be  fulfilled,  the  founding  of  a  great 
Southern  University  in  deed,  as  well  as  in  name,  where  the  young  men  of 
the  South  could  obtain,  at  small  cost,  the  best  facilities  in  all  branches  of 
learning  and  useful  arts,  especially  in  a  preparation  for  the  ministry. 
He  believed  in  an  educated  ministry.  As  soon  as  he  was  made  Chancellor 
of  this  new  university  in  1875,  he  went  to  Europe,  where  he  spent  nearly 
two  years  in  studying  and  having  made  the  most  approved  apparatus  for 
the  various  scientific  departments,  Physics,  Astronomy,  Chemistry,  etc. 

"This  short  and  imperfect  sketch  will  close  with  an  extract  from  a 
memorial  address  by  Capt.  Richard  Irby,  of  Randolph-Macon  College: 

"  'When  the  Vanderbilt  University  was  founded  the  President  of  its 
Board  of  Trust,  the  late  Bishop  McTyeire.  one  of  his  pupils  at  Randolph- 
Macon,  at  once  sought  Dr.  Garland  to  take  charge  of  the  University, 
knowing  full  well  his  eminent  qualifications  for  the  task.  Here  Dr.  Gar- 
land had  a  field  worthy  of  his  ability  and  experience.  He  and  Bishop 
McTyeire  had  for  years  wrought  together  as  father  and  son,  zealously 
and  effectively  in  the  establishment  of  a  great  Christian  University.  In 
the  order  of  Providence  the  Bishop  was  the  first  to  be  taken  away  by  death, 
but  in  this  field  of  his  last  and  best  endeavor,  Dr.  Garland  was  permitted 
to  live  and  spend  the  evening  of  his  useful  life  under  the  shadow  of  the 
stately  halls  he  had  seen  rise  from  the  earth  and  in  the  shade  of  the  beau- 
tiful trees  which  had  been  planted  and  nursed  by  his  former  pupil.  And 
here,  at  the  ripe  age  of  four  score  and  four  years,  with  a  heart  full  of  love 
to  God  and  still  yearning  to  do  what  he  could  for  the  young  men  of  his 
country,  "he  ceased  at  once  to  work  and  to  live."  '     (February  13,  1895.) 

"His  remains  lie  entombed  in  a  beautiful  spot  on  the  campus  of  Van- 
derbilt University  under  the  loving  care  of  those  who  will  always  honor 
and   revere   his   name." 

Dr.  Garland  was  succeeded,  in  the  University  of  Mississippi,  in  1875, 
by  his  son-in-law,  Robert  Burwell  Fulton,  who  had  been  Adjunct  Pro- 
fessor in  the  department  for  several  years.     Professor  Fulton  had  gradu-

ated  with  first  honpr  in  the  class  of  1869,  and  therefore  brought  to  the 
department  not  only  great  intellectuality,  but  also  great  ambition  and 
skillful  devotion  to  science.  He  took  hold  with  zeal  both  to  improve  the 
department  and  to  advance  science.  Want  of  funds,  at  the  same  time,  was 
a  hindrance  difficult  to  overcome.  The  policy  of  the  trustees  was  rather 
toward  establishing  new  departments  than  developing  to  high  efficiency 
the  old  ones.  Utilizing  as  best  he  could  the  small  funds  available  and  the 
campus  laborers,  he  added  to  the  equipments,  enlarged  the  rooms  and 
developed  special  arrangements  for  introducing  laboratory  work  along 
with  theoretical  work.  The  design  and  execution  of  these  good  intentions 
were,  in  their  very  incipiency,  seriously  embarrassed  by  the  poor  prepa- 
ration of  students  entering  the  University.  The  work  had  to  be  very 
elementary  to  make  any  progress  at  all.  In  the  department  of  Astron- 
omy he  succeeded  in  securing  an  appropriation  for  a  new  telescope,  which, 
however,  was  not  received  till  1893,  after  he  had  been  elected  Chancellor, 
which  occurred  in  January,  1892.  As  his  duties  increased  in  the  Chan- 
cellor's office,  while  retaining  the  title  of  Professor  of  Physics  and  As- 
tronomy, he  abandoned  all  teaching  except  that  of  Astronomy.  In  the 
broader  field  of  power,  incident  to  his  high  office,  his  greatest  services  to 
the  University  of  Mississippi  were  accomplished.  But  as  a  more  detailed 
sketch  of  his  life  and  work  is  given  along  with  the  other  Chancellors,  in 
other  parts  of  this  work,  further  details  will  be  omitted  here. 

In  1899,  after  serving  several  years  as  Associate  Professor  of  Physics, 
Dr.  John  Wesley  Johnson  was  elected  Professor  of  Physics,  Chancellor 
Fulton  still  retaining  the  Astronomy.  In  1907  Astronomy  was  again 
combined  with  Physics,  and  is  so  retained  at  present.  In  1900  Electricity 
was  separated  from  Physics,  and  Professor  Douglas  Anderson,  from  Tu_ 
lane  University,  Louisiana,  was  elected  Professor  of  Electricity  and  Elec- 
trical Engineering.  He  served  only  one  year  and  was  succeeded  by  Pro- 
fessor Arthur  W.  Smith,  also  from  Tulane.  He  likewise  served  only  one 
year,  when  Electricity  was  again  combined  with  Physics,  and  Assistant 
Professor  Eugene  Campbell  was  transferred  from  the  School  of  Chemistry 
to  Physics  and  placed  in  charge  of  Electricity.  The  following  year,  1903, 
the  head  of  the  department  recommended  that  Electricity  be  separated 
from  Physics  and  assigned  to  Professor  Eugene  Campbell.  These  rec- 
ommendations were  approved,  and  the  general  oversight  of  the  electrical 
plant  and  waterworks  was  also  assigned  to  Professor  Campbell.  In  1906 
it  was  recommended  that  Hydraulics  be  separated  from  Physics  and  made 
a  part  of  Civil  Engineering.  Physics  being  thus  relieved  of  both  Elec- 
tricity and  Hydraulics  began  at  once  to  afford  better  opportunity  for 
specializing  in  its  own  distinctive  work. 

A  further  notice  is  due  Professor  Eugene  Campbell,  who  was  born  Oc- 
tober 28,  1870,  in  Giles  County,  Tennessee,  but  reared  in  Mississippi. 
After  attending  the  public  schools  as  long  as  they  were  profitable  to  him, 
he  entered  at  Lexington,  Kentucky  as  a  student,  finishing  the  course 
there  in  1890.  On  his  return  he  engaged  in  teaching;  was  married  June 
4,  1893,  to  Miss  Lucy  Morrow,  of  Pontotoc  County;  moved  with  his  wife 
to  Oxford  and  entered  the  University  in  1895,  graduating  in  1897,  and

taking  his  M.A.  degree  in  1000.  In  his  senior  year  he  was  employed  as 
follow  and  advanced  to  Assistant  in  Chemistry  immediately  after  gradu- 
ation. In  1902  he  was  transferred  to  Physics  and  given  charge  of  Elec- 
tricity. In  1903  Electricity  and  Electrical  Engineering,  together  with 
the  general  management  of  the  electrical  and  heating  plant,  were  assigned 
him  as  a  separate  department.  In  this  he  was  doing  excellent  work  till 
he  was  smitten  down  by  typhoid  fever  and  died  August  21,  1906.  He 
was  a  man  of  more  than  ordinary  ability  as  well  as  of  great  moral  worth, 
and  was  rapidly  rising  in  his  profession  and  in  usefulness  when  the  dark 
messenger  of  Death  took  him  away. 


LATIN. 

ORGANIZATION. 

The  organization  of  this  school  is  coincident  with  the  establishment 
of  the  University.  In  the  autum  of  1848  when  the  doors  of  the  Institu- 
tion were  opened  for  the  admission  of  students,  they  found  a  competent 
instructor  in  the  classics,  who,  with  three  co-laborers,  constituted  the 
original  faculty.  The  Board  of  Trustees  had  previously  decided  that  the 
newly  established  seminary  for  learning  should  have  a  standard  as  good 
as  the  best. '  The  resolution  which  decided  this  important  issue  was  pro- 
posed by  General  John  A.  Quitman,  who,  as  a  member  of  the  first  Board 
of  Trustees  of  the  University,  did  yeoman  service  in  her  behalf. 

The  requirements  for  admission  in  Latin  were:  "Five  books  of  Caesar, 
the  Eclogues  and  six  books  of  the  Aeneid  of  Vergil,  Cicero's  Orations." 
"The  candidate  must  be  well  versed  in  the  Latin  Grammar,  including 
Latin  Prosody."  2 

The  original  course  of  study  planned  contemplated  three  years  of  col- 
lege Latin  as  follows:  "Freshman — Livy,  Ovid —  with  antiquities,  Latin 
composition  and  Prosody. 

"Sophomore — Horace,  Tacitus,  Juvenal  and  Persius,  with  antiquities, 
etc.,  as  above. 

"Junior — Cicero  de  Oratore,  de  Senectute  or  Amicitia,  with  antiqui- 
ties, etc.,  as  above."3 

Three  years  of  Latin  were  required  for  the  Bachelor  of  Arts  degree. 

The  graduate  who  desired  a  more  advanced  degree  might  obtain  it  by 
advanced  work  in  this  and  other  schools  of  the  University,  but  only  on 
the  following  terms:  "The  degree  of  Master  of  Arts  shall  not  be  con- 
ferred until  two  years  after  the  degree  of  Bachelor  of  Arts,  and  to  obtain 
it  a  regular  course  of  satisfactory  studies  in  each  Department  will  be 
required."4 


1  Resolved,  "That  the  qualifications  for  admission  into  the  several  classes  will  be  substan- 
tially such  as  are  required  in  the  best  regulated  universities  in  the  United  States."  Minutes  of

ANTE-BELLUM     PERIOD. 

The  first  Professor  of  Latin  in  the  University  was  the  Rev.  John  New- 
ton Waddel,  D.D.  He  was  sprung  from  excellent  lineage,  his  father  be- 
ing the  Rev.  Moses  Waddel,  D.D.,  who  for  a  number  of  years  was  master 
of  a  famous  classical  school  in  Wellington,  South  Carolina.  He  num- 
bered as  his  pupils  John  C.  Calhoun,  William  S.  Crawford,  Hugh  S.  Legare, 
Judge  A.  B.  Longstreet  and  many  others,  who  afterwards  in  church  and 
state  won  distinction.  In  1819  Dr.  Waddel  accepted  the  presidency  of 
the  University  of  Georgia,  and  remained  at  the  head  of  this  institution 
until  1829.  In  this  year  the  son  graduated  at  the  early  age  of  seventeen. 
Professor  Waddel  was  prepared  for  college  in  a  grammar  school  located 
on  the  college  campus.  He  was  introduced  to  the  Latin  grammar  at  the 
early  age  of  eight,  and  when  he  entered  college  was  already  well  grounded 
in'  the  classics.  His  teacher  was  Mr.  Moses  W.  Dobbins,  a  cousin,  who 
had  been  taught  by  his  father.  At  the  University  he  took  a  good  stand 
in  a  strong  class,  and  upon  his  graduation  devoted  himself  to  teaching, 
first  in  South  Carolina,  then  in  Alabama,  and  finally  in  1841  he  removed 
to  Mississippi  and  settled  in  Jasper  County.  Here  he  established  Mont- 
rose Academy,  one  of  the  earliest  classical  schools  in  the  State.  The 
school  prospered,  and  the  success  which  attended  his  labors  here  paved 
the  way  to  his  subsequent  election  to  the  Chair  of  Ancient  Languages  in 
the  University.  It  was  shortly  after  his  settlement  in  Mississippi  that 
he  decided  that  he  would  undertake  the  work  of  the  Christian  ministry, 
and  having  read  theology  privately,  he  was  duly  examined  and  licensed 
to  preach.  Upon  the  organization  of  the  University  Mr.  Waddel  was 
chosen  a  member  of  its  first  Board  of  Trustees,  and  as  a  member  of  the 
committee  on  courses  of  study  was,  in  a  large  measure,  responsible  for  the 
curriculum  of  the  institution.  He  resigned  his  position  on  the  Board  and 
was  elected  Professor  of  Ancient  Languages. l  Professor  Waddel  remained 
a  member  of  the  faculty  until  1857.  _  He  was  at  this  time  so  strongly  urged 
to  accept  the  Chair  of  Ancient  Languages  in  the  Synodical  College  at  La 
Grange,  Tenn.,  that  finally  thinking  it  the  call  of  duty  he,  with  much 
reluctance,  tendered  his  resignation  as  a  member  of  the  University  fac- 
ulty and  undertook  his  new  work.  This  institution  was  destroyed  by  the 
Civil  War.  Dr.  Waddel  was  elected  Chancellor  of  the  University  in  1865 
and  steered  the  institution  safely  through  the  dark  days  of  reconstruction. 
In  1874  he  resigned  the  chancellorship  of  the  University  and  shortly  after- 
wards was  elected  to  the  chancellorship  of  the  Southwestern  University 
at  Clarksville,  Tenn.     After  a  number  of  years  of  useful  service  there  he 


^'When  I  received  from  the  Secretary  of  the  Board,  Col.  Williams,  the  official  notification 
of  my  election,  I  learned  that  the  title  of  the  chair  I  was  expected  to  fill  was  'Professor  of  Greek, 
Latin,  Hebrew,  French,  German  and  Spanish.'  No  sooner  had  I  read  the  statement  than  I  at 
once  decided  to  decline  the  offer,  and  I  wrote  the  Secretary  to  that  effect  and  asked  for  an  explan- 
ation. In  his  reply  he  wrote  that  I  would  not  be  expected  to  give  instruction  in  any  languages 
except  Greek  and  Latin.  He  gave  as  the  reason  for  the  addition  of  the  other  names  to  the  title 
of  the  professorship  that  the  Board  desired  to  have  it  publicly  understood  that  a  department  of 
language  was  contemplated  in  the  system  of  instruction  when  complete,  but  that  the  amount 
of  available  means  at  the  control  of  the  University  was  inadequate  as  yet  to  admit  of  such  an 
extension." — Memorials  of  Academic  Life,  Waddel,  p.  255.

retired,  spending  his  last  years  in  quiet  and  study.  His  memoirs,  written 
by  him  during  this  period,  reveal  to  us  a  useful  and  well-spent  life.  As 
■  teacher  Dr.  Waddel  was  eminently  successful.  He  combined  sound 
scholarship  and  the  student's  love  for  study  with  the  ability  to  impart 
his  learning  to  others.  He  insisted  upon  a  thorough  mastery  of  the  ele- 
ments of  the  language;  a  power  to  be  acquired  only  by  a  study  of  the  gram- 
mar and  by  Latin  writing  as  well  as  extensive  reading.  He  scorned  for 
his  pupils  and  for  himself  meretricious  helps.  The  courses  offered  in 
Latin  by  him  were  in  substantial  agreement  with  those  originally  referred 
to,  but  it  seemed  wiser  to  postpone  the  reading  of  Juvenal  until  the  Junior 
year,  and  this  he  did.  The  important  position  that  Latin  has  held  in  the 
curriculum  of  this  institution  is  in  large  measure  due  to  the  wisdom  and 
learning  of  the  first  occupant  of  the  chair. 

In  1S56  the  Chair  of  Ancient  Languages  was  divided,  and  Professor 
Waddel  choosing  to  retain  the  Greek,  Professor  Wilson  G.  Richardson, 
A.M..  succeeded  him  as  Professor  of  Latin.  Mr.  Richardson  was  a  grad- 
uate of  the  University  of  Alabama,  and  had  served  his  alma  mater  as  a  tutor. 
He  subsequently  studied  in  Rome,  Berlin  and  Paris,  and  brought  to  the 
work  excellent  preparation,  sound  scholarship  and  enthusiasm  for  his 
subject.  The  standard  for  admission  was  now  raised  by  the  additional 
requirement  of  the  Georgics  of  Vergil  and  three  books  of  Ovid's  Meta- 
morphoses. This  added  requirement  made  more  extended  reading  in  the 
college  course  possible.  He  thus  expressed  his  views  of  the  work  that 
his  department  should  perform:  "The  history  of  this  remarkable  people, 
the  state  of  the  arts  among  them,  their  domestic  life,  public  and  private 
usages,  their  mythology,  laws,  education,  geography  and  antiquities  are 
severally  developed  in  expounding  Roman  authors.  Latin  is  not  taught 
as  an  isolated  language,  but  in  its  various  and  important  relations  to 
other  tongues.  The  influence  of  the  Greek  language  upon  the  Latin  is 
noted  and  the  Latin  upon  the  modern  tongues,  with  especial  reference 
above  all  to  its  bearing  upon  our  vernacular.  Everything  is  made  sub- 
servient to  thorough  English  scholarship."1  He  emphasized  the  struc- 
tural side  of  the  language,  and  urged  the  importance  of  storing  the  memory 
with  choice  passages  from  the  Latin  writers.  The  Satires  and  Epistles 
of  Horace  were  now  given  in  the  Freshman  year,  -  and  in  the  Sophomore 
systematic  instruction  in  Roman  history. 

At  their  June  meeting  in  I860  the  Board  of  Trustees  elected  Professor 
Alexandre  J.  Quinche  to  succeed  Professor  Richardson,  who  resigned  dur- 
ing the  previous  session. 3  The  newly  elected  professor  was  of  Swiss- 
Huguenot  parentage,  but  was  a  native  of  Minnesota,  being  born  at  Fort 
Snelling  in  the  year  1829.  He  received  his  collegiate  education  at  the 
Columbian  University,  Washington,  D.  C,  and  some  years  after  his  grad- 
uation was  elected  a  member  of  the  teaching  staff  of  his  alma  mater.  After 
a  single  year  of  satisfactory  service  at  the  University  of  Mississippi,  with 
other  members  of  the  faculty,  he  tendered  his  resignation,  as  the  Civil 
War  had  rendered  it  inadvisable  to  attempt  to  continue  the  work  at  the

J  Professor  Richardson  was  later  connected  with  Davidson  College,  North  Carolina;  Austin 
College,  Texas,  and  late  in  life  entered  the  ministry.

University.  But  he-  remained  on  the  campus,  and  during  a  portion  of 
this  time  he  conducted  a  school  under  the  authority  of  the  Board,  having 
as  his  associate  Burton  Harrison,  Esq.,  subsequently  secretary  to  Presi- 
dent Davis.  He  was  made  custodian  of  the  University  buildings,  and 
probably  saved  them  from  destruction  at  the  hands  of  the  federals. ' 

POST-BELLUM     PERIOD. 

When  the  University  was  reopened,  in  1865,  Professor  Quinche  was 
re-elected  to  the  chair  of  Latin,  and  continued  to  fill  this  position  for 
twenty-four  years.     His  death  occurred  in  August,  1889. 

Dr.  Quinche  was  a  faithful  teacher,  and  to  the  end  of  his  life  was  a  close 
student  of  the  Latin  language.  But  the  old  order  had  passed  away  and 
the  School  of  Latin  suffered  with  the  others.  There  were  few  schools  in 
the  State  to  take  the  place  of  the  many  private  schools  where  young  men 
had  received  adequate  preparation  prior  to  the  Civil  War.  The  public 
High  School  was  yet  undeveloped.  The  catalogue  no  longer  required  a 
standard  for  admission  that  could  not  be  met.  First  it  was  announced 
that  four  books  of  Vergil  would  be  required  for  admission,  the  require- 
ments in  Caesar  and  Cicero  remaining  unchanged. 

In  1880  the  admission  requirement  was  further  reduced  to  two  books 
of  Caesar,  two  Orations  of  Cicero  and  two  books  of  the  Aeneid  of  Vergil. 

For  some  years  a  Senior  course  was  offered,  extending  through  half 
the  session,  and  this  course  compensated,  in  a  measure,  for  the  less  effi- 
cient preparation.  Beginning  with  1887  the  work  in  Latin  was  limited  to 
the  Freshman  and  Sophomore  years.  Dr.  Quinche  filled  the  chair  for  a 
longer  period  than  any  other  occupant,  and  it  was  his  good  fortune  to  have 
under  his  instruction  during  this  period  many  young  men  who  have  since 
attained  positions  of  eminence  in  the  State  and  Nation.  Of  this  number 
are  the  present  chief  justice  of  the  State,  a  member  of  the  National  Senate 
a  bishop  in  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church,  South,  and  the  three  last 
chancellors  of  the  University.  An  examination  of  the  University  cata- 
logues of  the  period  reveals  the  fact  that  Dr.  Quinche  introduced  the  best 
text-books  as  they  appeared,  and,  further,  outlined  a  course  for  the  Mas- 
ter of  Arts  degree. 

THE   SCHOOL   UNDER  PROFESSOR   HOQUE. 

Professor  Addison  Hogue  succeeded  Dr.  Quinche  in  this  school. 2  He 
had  for  some  years  been  at  the  head  of  the  School  of  Greek,  and  in  1889 
the  two  chairs  were  combined.  During  this  period  the  requirements  for 
admission  were:  Two  books  of  Caesar  and  two  Orations  of  Cicero,  with 
corresponding  work  in  Grammar  and  Latin  writing.  The  course  extended 
through  only  two  years,  but  forms,  syntax,  Latin  writing,  and  the  read- 
ing of  considerable  portions  of  Cicero,  Vergil,  Livy  and  Horace  were  un- 
dertaken, and  in  addition  Roman  history  and  Roman  religion  were  studied. 

lDr.  Quinche  had  lived  in  Illinois,  where  he  had  been  associated  with  the  relatives  of  Gen- 
eral Grant.  As  a  result  he  was  enabled  to  have  General  Grant,  who  was  the  first  Union  Genera  I 
to  enter  Oxford,  put  a  guard  around  the  University  buildings,  and  this  protection  was  continued 
throughout  the  war.

This  work  was  so  effectually  done  that  at  the  end  of  the  two  years'  course 
the  student  was  well  prepared  for  more  advanced  work  in  this  field.  Thor- 
oughness was  the  Professor's  watchword.  Graduate  work  was  given  more 
emphasis  than  ever  before. 

Professor  Hogue  is  an  able  scholar,  and  was  a  strong  and  inspiring 
teacher.  He  left  a  lasting  impression  at  the  University,  though  he  was 
at  the  head  of  this  school  for  only  a  short  time. 


THE   RECENT   HISTOKY    OK  THE   SCHOOL. 

Professor  Alexander  L.  Bondurant,  A.M.,  was  placed  in  charge  of  the 
school  upon  the  resignation  of  Professor  Hogue,  which  occurred  in  June, 
1893. '  Mr.  Bondurant  had  been  connected  with  the  work  in  classics  for 
some  years  previously.  He  now  found  a  school  well  organized,  and  pos- 
sessing sound  traditions  with  reference  to  the  subject  to  be  taught,  so  the 
problem  that  presented  itself  was  to  develop,  broaden  and  enlarge  the  work 
already  so  admirably  begun.  From  the  beginning  there  has  been  kept 
constantly  in  mind  and  presented  to  the  students  as  sufficient  reasons 
to  justify  the  study  of  this  subject  its  disciplinary  value,  the  aid  which  it 
affords  in  the  mastery  of  English  and  the  Romanic  languages,  and  finally 
the  value  of  the  study  as  an  end  in  itself  by  reason  of  its  noble  literature, 
and  because  through  it  one  learns  to  know  the  laws  and  life  of  the  greatest 
people  of  antiquity. 

In  developing  the  work,  admission  requirements,  undergraduate,  and 
graduate  courses,  and  equipment  have  been  considered.  It  was  thought 
that  no  thoroughly  satisfactory  results  could  be  obtained  that  did  not 
take  into  consideration  each  of  these  as  important  factors.  The  stan- 
dard for  admission  in  Latin  was  first  raised  to  a  minimum  requirement 
of  four  books  of  Caesar  and  four  orations  of  Cicero,  with  corresponding 
work  in  Grammar  and  Latin  Writing.  The  standard  has  been  further 
raised  by  adding  two  additional  orations  of  Cicero  and  six  books  of  Vergil. 2 
This  means  that  four  years  of  high  school  work  are  required. 

The  undergraduate  courses  have  been  extended  from  year  to  year  until 
at  present  fourteen  courses  extending  through  four  years  are  given  in  lieu 
of  four  courses  extending  through  two  years.  These  additional  courses 
include  Methods  of  Teaching  Latin,  Private  Antiquities,  Roman  Religion, 
advanced  Composition,  reading  courses  in  Roman  comedy,  elegy,  the 
later  satirists,  Tacitus,  Catullus  and  Pliny. 3 

The  growth  in  numbers  in  the  school  has  been  commensurate  with  the 
growth  of  the  University.  In  1894  the  number  enrolled  in  Latin  by  classes 
was  70,  for  1909-10,  it  is  160.  The  Freshman  class  is  now  divided  into  three 
sections  and  the  Sophomore  into  two.  At  the  beginning  of  the  present 
period  all  the  work  of  the  school  was  done  by  a  single  professor,  now  there 
are  two  men,  a  professor  and  assistant  professor,  giving  their  whole  time 
to  the  work,  and  an  additional  assistant,  who  gives  five  hours  a  week. 
Two  years  of  Latin  are  required  for  the  A.B.  degree,  but  84  per  cent  of

those  taking  a  bachelor's  degree  of  any  character  whatsoever,  exclusive 
of  law,  between  1893-1908,  have  included  Latin  in  their  course.  All  the 
Rhodes  scholars  sent  from  this  State  have  taken  Latin  at  the  University, 
and  only  one  student  has  passed  the  examination  who  has  not  studied 
here.  On  the  second  examination  only  one  State,  New  York,  had  more 
students  to  pass  the  examination  than  Mississippi,  and  on  the  third  exam- 
ination this  State  led  all  the  Southern  States.  During  this  period  a  num- 
ber of  books  have  been  added  to  the  Latin  library,  and  a  number  of  pic- 
tures and  slides  acquired. 

Considerable  emphasis  has  been  placed  upon  graduate  work  and  ad- 
vanced courses  have  been  offered  in  Lucretius,  Roman  Comedy,  Roman 
Antiquities,  and  Ovid.  A  number  of  those  who  have  completed  this 
work  have  since  engaged  in  teaching  Latin. 

•   In  addition  to  the  Professors  already  named  the  department  has  had 
connected  with  it  the  following:

GREEK. 

The  records  show  that  the  importance  of  Greek,  both  as  disciplinary 
and  cultural,  has  been  recognized  in  the  University  of  Mississippi  from 
its  foundation.  The  chair  has  been  filled  by  men  eminent  as  scholars  and 
as  teachers,  as  may  be  seen  from  the  list  below: 

John  H.  Waddell,  D.D.,  Professor  of  Greek 1848-1857 

Henry  Whitehorne,  M.A.,  Professor  of  Greek 1857-1861 

J.  J.  Wheat,  M.A.,  Professor  of  Greek 1865-1886 

A.  H.  Whitfield,  M.A..  Adjunct  Professor  of  Greek. .1872-1874 

Addison  Hogue,  M.A.,  Professor  of  Greek 1886-1893 

A.  L.  Bondurant,  M.A.,  Professor  of  Greek 1893-1895 

P.  H.  Saunders,  Ph.D.,  Professor  of  Greek 1895-1905 

J.  G.  Deupree,  M.A.,  LL.D.,  Professor  of  Greek.  .     1905 

Dr.  Saunders  was  born  and  educated  in  Mississippi,  taking  at  the  Uni- 
versity the  degrees  of  B.A.,  M.A.,  and  Ph.D.  He  is  now  President  of  the 
Commercial  Bank  and  Trust  Co.,  Laurel,  Miss. 


32  I   MVi:i'SlTY  OF  MISSISSIPPI. 

Prof.  A.  L.  Bondurant  has  continuously  held  the  chair  of  Latin  in  the 
University,  since  Greek  and  Latin  were  separated  in  1895. 

Prof.  Addison  Hogue,  since  1S93,  has  filled  the  chair  of  Greek  in  Wash- 
ington and  Lee  University,  Virginia. 

Prof.  A.  H.  Whitfield,  after  resigning  the  chair  of  Greek,  practiced  law 
in  Mississippi,  was  Professor  of  Law  in  the  University,  and  has  been  for 
years  upon  the  Supreme  Bench,  being  now  Chief  Justice  of  this  State. 

The  others  in  the  list  just  given  have  been  summoned  to  the  school 
abov< . 

When  the  Board  of  Trustees,  on  the  recommendation  of  the  Faculty, 
abolished  the  Preparatory  Department  in  1892,  it  was  deemed  advisable 
to  assign  to  Greek  a  position  in  the  curriculum  later  than  heretofore.  A 
student  who  had  not  studied  Greek  was  to  be  permitted  to  begin  the  sub- 
ject at  the  University,  provided  he  ranked  not  below  Freshman  in  Latin. 

Early  in  the  fall  of  1895  Dr.  P.  H.  Saunders,  as  Professor  of  Greek, 
undertook  to  raise  the  standard  so  as  to  make  the  course  in  Greek  com- 
mensurate in  extent  and  advancement  with  that  offered  in  other  depart- 
ments. The  University  authorities  officially  confirmed  this  action  by 
joining  the  Association  of  Colleges  and  Preparatory  Schools  of  the  South- 
ern States,  one  of  the  requirements  for  which  was  that  a  fair  knowledge 
of  forms  and  syntax,  and  at  least  three  books  of  the  Anabasis,  should  be 
required  for  entrance  to  the  Freshman  Greek  class.  This  was  about  the 
scope  of  the  advance  before  decided  upon.  The  schools  of  the  State  were 
informed  of  the  intended  change,  and  were  requested  to  introduce  Greek 
if  practicable. 

The  correspondence  course,  offered  by  the  indefatigable  professor, 
was  a  phenomenal  success  from  its  inception.  Many  ambitious  teachers 
thus  prepared  themselves  to  teach  Greek,  and  as  a  consequence  about 
forty  schools  in  Mississippi  now  have  Greek  in  their  courses  of  study, 
and  the  standard  has  been  so  raised   as  to  justify  the  following:

METHOD     OF     INSTRUCTION. 

First  Year.— The  work  of  this  year  is  in  part  devoted  to  a  thorough  and 
persistent  drill  on  the  inflections  and  in  the  elementary  principles  of  syn- 
tax. Accuracy  in  form  and  accent  is  cultivated  by  the  constant  use  of 
the  blackboard  and  a  correct  pronunciation  is  secured  by  reading  the 
accented  forms  from  the  board.  Translation  of  English  into  Greek  is 
practiced  each  day.  The  English  sentences  are  given  out  on  slips  of  paper, 
and  the  equivalent  Greek  is  put  upon  the  blackboard  by  the  students. 
From  fifteen  to  thirty  lines  are  assigned  for  translation.  Each  student  is 
given  work  each  day.

34  !  WIVBRBIT7  OF   MISSISSIPPI. 

Second  Year.  —In  the  Sophomore  year  the  drill  in  inflections  continues 
the  principal  parts  of  the  most  important  irregular  verbs  are  learned,  and 
the  rules  of  syntax  are  impressed  by  frequent  questioning  and  by  written 
exercises.  A  careful  study  of  the  geography  of  Greece  is  made,  and  the 
location  and  contour  of  important  countries  is  impressed  by  map  draw- 
ing. From  thirty  to  fifty  lines  are  assigned  for  translation,  and  sight  read- 
ing is  continually  practiced  and  encouraged. 

Third  Year. — The  same  general  plan  of  thorough  drill  in  forms  and  syn- 
tax is  followed  here,  though  not  so  much  time  is  given  to  it.  Translation 
is  emphasized  and  metrical  reading  is  practiced. 

Collateral  reading  from  books  to  be  found  in  the  University  library 
will  be  assigned  each  class. 

Each  student  should  have  a  Liddell  and  Scott's  Greek-English  Lexicon 
(abridged),  and  a  good  hand-book  of  mythology. 

With  the  courses  above  offered  it  is  interesting  to  compare  the  follow- 
ing as  given  in  the  catalogue  of  1852-53:

ROMANCE  LANGUAGES. 

(See  also  Germanic  Languages  and  Latin.) 

The  Romance  Languages  belonged  to  the  School  of  Modern  Languages 
until  1905.  Work  in  Modern  Languages  in  the  University  of  Mississippi 
was  begun  in  the  third  year  of  its  existence.  Adolph  Sadluski  was  elected 
Assistant  Professor  of  Modern  Languages  in  July,  1850,  but  as  he  did  not 
appear  for  service  the  chair  was  declared  vacant  on  the  29th  of  October, 
1850. 

William  A.  Strozzi,  A.M.,  took  charge  of  the  work  in  1850  (or  1851)  and 
continued  in  charge  until  1854.  Dr.  Waddel,  in  his  Memorials  of  Academic 
Life  (p.  305),  says:  "Sadluski  was  succeeded  by  a  very  unsuitable  man,  by 
name  William  A.  Strozzi,  also  a  foreigner,  who  was  in  office  only  two  years. 
Both  of  these  men  came  recommended  as  competent  for  the  position, 
but  perhaps  there  have  rarely  been  found  such  complete  failures  as  they 
both  proved  to  be." 

Professor  Strozzi  was  succeeded  by  Wilson  Gaines  Richardson,  A.M., 
who  served  to  1860.     During  the  last  four  years  of  this  period  Professor 


UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI.  35 

Richardson  held  also  the  chair  of  Latin.  He  had  enjoyed  the  advantages 
of  classical  study  at  Berlin  and  Rome,  and  had  spent  nearly  two  years  in 
Paris.  French  and  Spanish  were  the  languages  taught.  "The  method  of 
instruction  in  these  languages  is  substantially  the  same  as  set  forth  for 
Latin."  "In  Spanish  the  course  is  quite  limited."  (Catalogue.)  Tick- 
nor's  History  of  Spanish  Literature  is  one  of  the  text-books  put  down  in 
the  catalogue. 

Alexandre  James  Quinche,  M.A.,  was  the  next  professor  in  this  de- 
partment, holding  the  chair  (along  with  Latin)  for  the  year  1860-1861, 
and  again  for  the  first  year  after  the  resumption  of  university  work  at  the 
close  of  the  Civil  War,  1865-1866.  Dr.  Quinche  was  born  of  Swiss  parents 
at  Fort  Snelling,  Minn.,  January  27,  1827.  His  boyhood  was  spent  at 
Galena,  111.,  and  his  higher  education  obtained  at  the  University  of  the 
City  of  New  York,  and  at  Columbian  University,  Washington,  D.  C. 
During  the  Civil  War  Professor  Quinche  was  left  in  charge  of  the  Univer- 
sity property,  and  on  account  of  the  acquaintance  of  his  family  with  Gen- 
eral Grant's,  formed  at  Galena,  he  was  able  to  save  the  buildings  and 
collections. 

In  1866-67  Dabney  Minor  Scales  had  charge  of  the  department,  Pro- 
fessor Quinche  remaining  in  charge  of  Latin.  French  and  Spanish  were 
the  languages  taught,  and  were  confined  to  the  Junior  and  Senior  years. 

From  1867  to  1872  Professor  Quinche  again  had  charge  of  Modern  Lan- 
guages in  addition  to  his  duties  as  Professor  of  Latin.  The  last  two  years 
of  this  period  he  was  acting  Professor  of  Modern  Languages,  the  profes- 
sorship being  vacant. 

In  1872  Frederick  A.  Juny,  S.T.D.,  took  charge  of  the  work  and  re- 
mained till  1876.  Professor  Juny  was  an  Alsatian,  who  had  at  one  time 
been  a  Roman  Catholic  priest,  but  was  at  this  time  an  Episcopal  clergy- 
man. German  appears  to  have  been  given  for  the  first  time  during  his 
occupancy. 

Professor  Quinche  again  assumed  the  responsibilities  of  the  chair  of 
Modern  Languages  in  1876  and  held  the  position  till  1881,  continuing  to 
serve  as  Professor  of  Latin  all  the  while.  Only  French  was  given  during 
this  period. 

In  1881  Charles  Woodward  Hutson,  a  South  Carolinian  by  birth,  be- 
came Instructor  and  in  1884  Professor  of  Modern  Languages,  continuing 
in  office  till  1889.  French  and  German  were  regularly  given,  but  there 
was  no  demand  for  Spanish.  Professor  Hutson  had  formerly  been  Pro- 
fessor of  Greek  in  Louisiana  State  University,  and  was  later  Professor  of 
History  in  the  A.  &  M.  College  of  Texas.  He  is  the  author  of  a  History 
of  French  Literature  and  a  Story  of  Language.  (See  Who's  Who  in  America.) 
His  present  address  is  New  Orleans,  La. 

Joseph  Auguste  Fontaine,  Ph.D.,  succeeded  Professor  Hutson,  hold- 
ing the  Chair  of  Modern  Languages  for  two  years,  1889-91.  Professor 
Fontaine  is  a  Frenchman.  He  went  from  Mississippi  to  Bryn  Mawr, 
where  from  1891  to  1900  he  was  Associate  Professor  of  Romance  Languages. 
Later  he  returned  to  France.    He  is  editor  of  Merimee's  Colombo. 

The  next  occupant,  Hans  Schmidt-Wartenberg,  Ph.D.,  likewise  re- 


36  DNIVBRBITJ  OF  MISSISSIPPI. 

mained  two  years,  IS'U  93.  Dr.  Sehmidt-Wartenberg  is  a  German.  He 
wont  from  Mississippi  to  the  University  of  Chicago. 

Chiles  Clifton  Ferrell,  A.M.,  Ph.D.,  succeeded  Dr.  Sehmidt-Warten- 
berg in  1S93,  and  continued  Professor  of  Modern  Languages  till  1905, 
when  the  chair  was  divided  between  him  and  Calvin  S.  Brown,  Dr.  Ferrell 
retaining  the  Germanic  Languages  and  Dr.  Brown  taking  the  Romance. 
Spanish  was  revived  in  1901-02,  after  having  been  out  of  the  curriculum 
for  many  years.  Dr.  Ferrell  was  born  in  South  Carolina,  spent  his  boy- 
hood in  Kentucky,  took  his  Master's  degree  at  Vanderbilt  and  his  Doc- 
tor's at  Leipsig.  (See  Who's  Who  in  America.)  His  present  address  is 
Birmingham,  Ala. 

During  the  spring  term  of  the  year  1901-02  Calvin  S.  Brown  was  Acting 
Professor,  while  Dr.  Ferrell  was  on  leave  of  absence  in  Europe.  Dr. 
Brown  remained  for  the  summer  school,  this  being  the  first  time  Modern 
Languages  were  given  in  the  summer  term.  During  the  year  1901-02 
James  V.  Bowen,  B.P.,  was  fellow  in  Modern  Languages.  He  is  now 
Professor  of  Modern  Languages  in  the  A.  &  M.  College  of  Mississippi. 

Upon  the  division  of  the  department  of  Modern  Languages  in  1905, 
Calvin  S.  Brown,  D.Sc,  Ph.D.,  took  charge  of  the  Romance  Languages 
and  remained  in  charge  until  the  autumn  of  1909. 

French  and  Spanish  have  been  regularly  given  since  the  establishment  of 
the  chair  of  Romance  Languages  in  1905,  and  Italian  was  added  in  1907-08. 
In  1907  the  students  of  French  under  the  direction  of  Dr.  Brown  played 
Moliere's  Le  Malade  imaginaire,  and  in  1908  Moliere's  Le  Bourgeois  gen- 
tilhomme.  Dr.  Brown  is  a  Tennessean  by  birth,  a  graduate  of  Vanderbilt 
University,  and  has  studied  and  traveled  extensively  abroad.  (See  Who's 
Who  in  America.) 

John  L.  Deister,  B.A.,  was  made  Assistant  Professor  in  1908,  and  upon 
the  transfer  of  Dr.  Brown  to  the  German  department  in  1909,  was  pro- 
moted to  the  full  professorship.  Professor  Deister  was  born  in  Missouri, 
graduated  at  the  University  of  that  State,  and  has  spent  much  time  in 
Mexico.

GERMANIC  LANGUAGES. 

(See  also  Romance  Languages  and  Latin.) 

German  belonged  to  the  School  of  Modern  Languages  until  that  school 
was  divided  in  1905.  In  the  earlier  history  of  the  University  French  and 
Spanish  were  the  living  foreign  languages  taught,  German  apparently  not 
being  given  until  Professor  Juny  took  charge  of  Modern  Languages. 

Frederick  A.  Juny,  S.T.D.,  an  Alsatian  by  birth,  a  Catholic  priest  by 
profession,  later  an  Episcopal  clergyman,  held  the  chair  of  Modern  Lan- 
guages from  1872  to  1876.  Born  in  the  city  of  Metz,  Professor  Juny  spoke 
both  French  and  German  from  childhood.  To  him  belongs  the  honor  of 
introducing  German  into  the  University. 

Alexandre  James  Quinche,  M.A..LL.D.,  professor  of  Latin,  was  put 
in  charge  of  the  Modern  Languages  after  Dr.  Juny  left  and  held  the  chair 
from  1876  to  1881.  He  discontinued  German,  giving  only  French  during 
his  occupancy.  Dr.  Quinche  was  born  of  Swiss  parents  at  Fort  Snelling, 
Minn.,  on  the  17th  of  January,  1827.  His  boyhood  was  passed  at  Galena, 
111.,  and  his  collegiate  education  was  obtained  at  the  University  of  the 
City  of  New  York  and  at  the  Columbian  University,  Washington,  D.  C. 

Charles  Woodward  Hutson  came  to  the  University  in  1881  as  instructor 
in  Modern  Languages,  and  in  1884  was  advanced  to  the  rank  of  professor. 
He  held  the  chair  until  1889.  Under  him  German  was  restored  and  it  has 
ever  since  held  a  place  in  the  curriculum  of  the  University.  Professor 
Hutson  was  born  in  South  Carolina  in  1840,  held  the  chair  of  Greek  in  the 
University  of  Louisiana  for  several  years,  and  later,  after  leaving  Miss- 
issippi, was  Professor  of  History  in  the  A.  and  M.  College  of  Texas.  (See 
Who's  Who  in  America.)    At  present  he  resides  in  New  Orleans. 

Joseph  Auguste  Fontaine,  Ph.D.,  a  Frenchman,  next  held  the  chair 
of  Modern  Languages,  his  tenure  being  for  two  years,  1889-91.  Upon  his 
resignation  from  Mississippi  he  went  to  Bryn  Mawr  as  Assistant  Profes- 
sor of  Romance  Languages  and  later  returned  to  France,  where  he  is 
still  living. 

Hans  Schmidt-Wartenberg,  Ph.D.,  a  native  German,  held  the  chair 
from  1891  to  1893.  After  retiring  from  Mississippi  he  went  to  the  Uni- 
versity of  Chicago. 

Following  Dr.  Schmidt-Wartenberg  came  Chiles  Clifton  Ferrell,  M.A., 
Ph.D.,  who  held  the  chair  of  Modern  Languages  until  it  was  divided  in 
1905  and  from  that  time  held  the  chair  of  Germanic  Languages  until  1908, 
when  he  resigned.  Prof.  Ferrell  took  his  master's  degree  at  Vanderbilt 
University  and  his  doctor's  degree  at  Leipzig,  Germany.  He  is  editor  of 
Grillparzer's  Sappho.  (See  Who's  Who  in  America).  Dr.  Ferrell  resides 
at  present  in  Birmingham,  Ala.  During  the  spring  and  summer  terms 
of  1901-2  Calvin  S.  Brown  had  charge  of  the  department  while  Dr.  Ferrell 
was  on  leave  of  absence  in  Europe.  German  was  given  then  for  the  first 
time  in  the  summer  school.  James  V.  Bowen,  B.P.,  a  graduate  of  this 
institution,  was  during  1901-2  teaching  fellow  in  Modern  Languages.  He 
now  holds  the  chair  of  Foreign  Languages  in  the  A.  and  M.  College  of 
Mississippi. 


3S  '  V1VBRSITY  OF   MISSISSIPPI. 

Upon  Dr.  Ferrell's  resignation  in  July,  1908,  Calvin  S.  Brown,  Ph.D., 
Professor  of  Romance  Languages  in  the  University  of  Mississippi,  was 
asked  to  take  charge  of  the  department  of  Germanic  Languages  for  the 
following  year  in  addition  to  his  regular  duties.  With  him  was  associ- 
ated John  L.  Deister,  B.A.,  as  assistant  professor.  In  1909  Dr.  Brown  was 
permanently  transferred  to  the  chair  of  German  and  Prof.  Deister  took 
charge  of  the  Romance  Languages.  Dr.  Brown  is  a  Tennessean  by  birth, 
a  graduate  of  Vanderbilt  University  and  the  University  of  Colorado,  and 
has  studied  in  Germany  and  other  European  countries.  He  is  editor  of 
Tennyson's  Poems  and  of  the  Later  English  Drama.  (See  Who's  Who  in

CHEMISTRY. 

Though  the  University  opened  in  1848,  there  is  no  record  of  a  chair 
for  teaching  chemistry  until  1850.  At  that  time  John  Millington,  M.D., 
was  professor  of  chemistry  and  geology.  The  science  under  considera- 
tion was  taught  in  the  Junior  year.  In  1853  J.  C.  Keeney,  A.M.,  was 
professor  of  chemistry,  analytical  chemistry,  agriculture  and  geology. 
Johnston's  Turner's  Chemistry  was  used  as  a  text  for  first  half  of  Senior 
year,  with  analysis  and  agriculture  for  the  last  half.  It  is  recorded  for 
1854  that  the  Board  of  Trustees  "at  their  late  meeting  in  Jackson,  erected 
a  distinct  professorship  for  instruction  in  geology,  agriculture  and  an- 
alytical chemistry,  which  have  heretofore  been  united  with  the  chair  of 
chemistry."  A  room  was  then  being  prepared  for  chemical  analysis.  In 
1854  Lewis  Harper,  LL.D.,  held  the  position  of  State  geologist  and  pro- 
fessor of  geology,  agriculture  and  analytical  chemistry.  In  that  year 
the  professorship  of  chemistry,  natural  philosophy  and  assistant  State 
geologist  was  vacant,  being  filled  in  1855  by  the  election  of  E.  W.  Hilgard, 
Ph.D.  In  1856  E.  C.  Boynton,  M.A.,  late  assistant  professor  of  chem- 
istry at  West  Point  Military  Academy,  was  chosen  professor  of  chemistry, 
geology  and  mineralogy,  the  State  survey  having  been  detached  from  the 
University.  The  first  full  statement  of  the  work  offered  in  chemistry 
occurs  in  this  year  as  follows:  Instruction  was  offered  only  in  the  Junior 
year,  with  the  laboratory  enlarged  and  improved.  "At  each  recitation 
every  principle  and  fact  of  importance  will  be  experimentally  exhibited, 
accompanied  by  drawings  and  explanations  intended  to  impart  a  more 
thorough  understanding  of  the  course  than  is  usually  secured  by  period- 
ical lectures.  An  expensive  and  complete  apparatus  has  been  secured 
and  facilities  for  instruction  are  second  to  none  in  the  country."     In- 


UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI.  39 

struction  was  also  offered  in  physical  chemistry,  inorganic  and  organic 
chemistry. 

In  1865  Dr.  Hilgard,  State  geologist,  was  acting  professor  of  chemistry. 
He  outlined  his  course  as  consisting  of  "daily  lectures,  accompanied  by 
illustrative  experiments  alternating  with  recitations,"  and  stated  that 
"although  thus  far  no  express  provision  has  been  made  in  the  curriculum 
for  students  who  desire  to  make  chemistry  a  special  study,  a  limited 
number  of  such  may  be  admitted  to  a  practical  course  in  the  laboratory 
by  special  arrangement."  In  1856  he  stated  that  "students  may  devote 
their  entire  time  to  this  special  department."  The  main  text  was  Fownes. 
The  course  for  the  above  work  was  announced  in  1867  to  consist  of,  for 
the  first  year,  Chemistry  (Roscoe,  U.  S.  Dispensatory,  Gmelin),  Quali- 
tative Analysis  (Fresenius,  Will,  Plattner);  second  year,  Organic  Labo- 
ratory Work  and  Quantitative  Analysis  (Rose) ;  and  third  year,  Technical 
Chemistry  and  Original  Research.  Every  catalogue  during  Dr.  Hilgard's 
administration  claims  "a  large  and  well  appointed  laboratory,  excelled 
by  none  in  the  South."  In  1870  the  chemical  department  offered  a  course 
in  pharmacy  and  in  agricultural  chemistry.  The  year  1872  records  Dr. 
Hilgard  as  professor  of  chemistry  and  agricultural  chemistry,  with  J.  B. 
Adger,  Jr.,  as  adjunct  professor.  The  latter  seems  to  have  had  entire 
charge  of  the  laboratory,  the  former  serVing  chiefly  as  State  geologist. 
Dr.  Hilgard  resigned  in  1874,  Mr.  Adger  remaining  in  charge.  For  the 
session  of  1875-76  there  seems  to  have  been  no  one  occupying  the  chair  of 
chemistry,  but  it  was  announced  that  the  two  professors  of  chemistry  to 
be  elected  would  also  open  the  newly  founded  school  of  agriculture  and 
mechanic  arts.  Special  students  in  chemistry  were  to  be  charged  a  fee 
of  $75,  with  $25  additional  for  breakage. 

In  1876  Dr.  R.  W.  Jones  was  elected  professor  of  chemistry  and  nat- 
ural history,  with  L.  L.  Mclnnis,  A.B.,  as  tutor.  Special  post-graduate 
cources  were  offered.  The  next  year  T.  D.  Greenwood,  A.B.,  tutor, 
died  December  5th.  During  the  following  [session  fJ.  M.  Buchanan 
was  assistant  in  chemistry.  He  remained  until  1879.  During  the 
following  two  sessions  J.  W.  Kilpatrick  served  as  tutor.  The  course 
consisted  of  four  hours  of  general  chemistry  and  four  hours  of  practical 
chemistry.  W.  E.  Martin,  A. B.,  was  tutor  for  the  year '81-'82.  No  tutors 
in  chemistry  are  recorded  from  that  year  up  to  1888.  In  1885  Dr.  Jones 
resigned  and  W.  D.  Hedleston,  A. B.,  held  the  position  of  acting  professor. 

Woodville  Latham  was  elected  professor  in  1886  and  six  hours  per  week 
of  laboratory  work  was  added  to  the  Senior  year  for  B.S.  students.  In 
the  year  1888  a  fellowship  in  chemistry  was  established  to  encourage  post- 
graduate work.  The  compensation  was  $300  per  year,  and  the  holder  was 
required  to  spend  part  of  his  time  as  instructor. 

Dr.  Jones  returned  to  the  University  in  1889,  with  J.  W.  Provine,  B.S., 
as  fellow.  Bloxam  was  the  text  for  general  chemistry,  and  Appleton  for 
analysis.  T.  O.  Mabry  held  the  fellowship  from  '90  to  '92,  and  the  cata- 
logue for  1891  gives  figures  to  show  the  accuracy  of  the  students  in  chem- 
ical analysis.  In  1891  the  texts  used  were  changed  to  Richter,  Remsen, 
Smith  and  Kellar  and  Thrope  and  Tait.    The  new  courses  were:  for  M.A., 


40  UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI. 

Remsen's  Theoretical  and  part  of  Thorpe's  Quantitative  Analysis;  for 
Ph.D.,  in  addition  to  the  above  Cooke's  Chemical  Philosophy,  Wurtz's 
Atomic  Theory  and  selected  methods.  During  the  year  '92-'9.3  Charles 
Strong  held  the  position  of  fellow,  his  name  also  appearing  in  this  capacity 
in  the  catalogues  from  1895  to  1S97.  It  was  announced  in  1892  that  B.A. 
students  could  elect  general  or  analytical  chemistry,  such  classes  having 
been  confined  to  general  chemistry  theretofore.  The  laboratory  that 
year  commenced  subscribing  to  the  following  journals:  Chemical  News, 
Americal  Chemical  Journal,  Annales  de  Chimie  et  de  Physique,  besides 
others  that  were  received  by  the  general  library.  In  1893  the  courses  were 
changed  to  Sophomore,  Elementary  Chemistry,  two  hours;  Junior,  In- 
organic and  Organic  Chemistry,  three  hours;  Senior,  Practical  and  An- 
alytical Chemistry,  ten  hours.  From  '92  to  '95  no  Ph.D.  courses  were 
announced. 

Eugene  Campbell  was  elected  fellow  in  chemistry  in  1897,  assistant  in  1899 
and  assistant  professor  in  1901.  A  course  in  metallurgy  and  assaying  was 
added  in  1900,  and  inorganic  preparations  and  electrolytic  and  gas  analysis 
in  1902.  For  the  session  1904-05  W.  A.  Stevens,  A.B.,  served  as  assistant, 
and  the  courses  are  for  the  first  time  announced  in  complete  detail  in  the 
catalogue.  General  Chemistry  and  Analytical  Chesmistry  are  arranged 
as  two  distinct  schools.  Altogether  nine  undergraduate  courses  are  of- 
fered, besides  several  post-graduate  courses.  The  following  year  A.  H. 
Roop,  B.S.,  served  as  assistant.  In  1905  A.  M.  Muckenfuss,  Ph.D.,  was 
elected  professor  of  Chemistry,  Dr.  Jones  having  resigned,  and  C.  W. 
Martin  was  the  assistant.  In  1906  the  two  schools  of  chemistry  were 
merged  into  one,  and  G.  L.  Paddison,  M.A.,  was  elected  assistant.  The 
courses  were  rearranged  and  the  course  in  metallurgy  abandoned.  Alto- 
gether six  undergraduate  and  four  post-graduate  courses  were  offered. 
A  new  lecture  room  and  a  new  Freshman  laboratory  were  constructed. 
During  the  summer  of  1908  the  Board  of  Trustees  let  contracts  for  the 
complete  remodeling  of  the  chemical  laboratory,  so  that  at  present  it  has 
practically  all  modern  conveniences. 

GEOLOGY. 

On  the  organization  of  the  University  of  Mississippi  in  1848  the  first 
faculty  consisted  of  four  members,  one  of  whom  was  a  professor  of  Chem- 
istry and  Natural  Philosophy.  There  were  thirty-five  applicants  for  this 
chair,  the  election  resulting  in  the  choice  of  John  N.  Millington,  M.D., 
then  filling  a  chair  at  William  and  Mary  College,  Virginia.  Dr.  Milling- 
ton  was  an  Englishman  by  birth,  a  former  associate  and  pupil  of  Faraday, 
and  at  the  time  of  his  election  was  seventy  years  old.  We  know  little  of 
the  extent  of  Geological  teaching  at  the  University  at  this  time,  but  it 
must  have  commanded  some  attention,  for  on  March  5,  1850,  the  Legis- 
lature of  the  State  passed  an  Act  authorizing  an  Agricultural  and  Geo- 
logical Survey  of  the  State,  the  survey  to  be  conducted  from  the  Univer- 
sity with  Dr.  Millington  as  chief  Geologist.  In  addition  to  his  work  in 
Chemistry  the  trustees  appointed  him  Professor  of  Geology  and  Agri- 
culture. 


UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI.  41 

In  January,  1852>  Professor  B.  L.  C.  Wailes  was  appointed  Assistant 
Professor  of  Geology  and  Assistant  State  Geologist,  succeeding  O.  M. 
Leiber.  Wailes  had  come  into  Mississippi  in  an  earlier  day  as  a  surveyor 
of  land  for  the  U.  S.  Government  and  had  located  at  Washington,  Miss. 
Dr.  Millington  being  too  old  to  go  into  field-work  vigorously,  Professor 
Wailes  prosecuted  the  survey,  while  Dr.  Millington  did  the  class  work 
and  analytical  work  of  the  survey. 

In  1853  Dr.  Millington  resigned  his  work  at  the  University  to  accept 
a  chair  in  Memphis  Medical  College,  and  John  C.  Keeney,  A.M.,  was 
elected  Professor  of  Chemistry,  Agriculture  and  Geology.  He  served  in 
this  capacity  but  one  session,  Lewis  Harper,  LL.D.,  becoming  Professor 
of  Geology,  Agriculture  and  Chemistry  in  1854.  Meanwhile  Wailes  had 
prosecuted  the  survey  work,  and  in  that  year  published  his  "Report  on 
Geology  and  Agriculture  of  Mississippi,"  his  name  appearing  as  State 
Geologist  at  the  request  of  Dr.  Millington,  who  disclaimed  the  honor, 
since  Wailes  did  the  chief  part  of  the  work. 

During  these  early  years  Geology  was  a  required  study  in  the  Senior 
class,  but  the  details  of  the  work  are  not  given  in  the  catalogues  of  the 
time. 

During  the  professorship  of  Lewis  Harper,  1854-1856,  he  was  also  State 
Geologist.  In  1856  he  was  succeeded  by  Edward  C.  Boynton,  elected  as 
Professor  of  Chemistry,  Geology  and  Mineralogy,  which  is  the  first  evi- 
dence of  Mineralogy  constituting  a  recognized  part  of  the  work.  Boynton 
had  been  Assistant  Professor  of  Chemistry  at  West  Point.  Harper  con- 
tinued as  State  Geologist  until  1857,  the  Legislature  having  disassociated 
the  position  from  connection  with  the  Geological  Department  at  the 
University.  E.  W.  Hilgard,  Ph.D.,  was  Assistant  Geologist  under  Har- 
per and  succeeded  him  in  that  capacity  in  1857. 

In  the  year  1856  the  University  purchased  for  the  Geological  Depart- 
ment the  Francis  Markoe  collection,  of  minerals,  which  grace  our  cabinets 
at  the  present  time.  At  the  same  time  the  Budd  collection  of  shells  was 
purchased  in  New  York,  containing  some  10,000  specimens.  These  could 
not  fail  to  add  interest  and  effectiveness  to  the  teaching  in  these  depart- 
ments. 

Professor  Boynton,  though  a  Northern  man,  continued  his  work  at  the 
University  until  the  very  outbreak  of  the  war  in  1861,  when  the  Univer- 
sity closed. 

In  1860  Dr.  Hilgard,  who  had  diligently  prosecuted  the  survey  of  the 
State,  published  his  "Report  on  the  Agriculture  and  Geology  of  Missis- 
sippi." 

During  the  period  of  the  Civil  War  all  exercises  at  the  University  were 
suspended,  though  a  small  appropriation  was  allowed  by  the  Legislature 
to  pay  the  salary  of  State  Geologist  and  defray  necessary  expenses  for 
chemicals  and  apparatus  for  analysis. 

On  the  opening  of  the  University  after  the  war  E.  W.  Hilgard  was 
elected  Professor  of  Chemistry,  Mineralogy  and  Geology,  beginning  his 
work  in  that  capacity  in  the  session  of  1866-67.  Professor  Hilgard,  though 
not  a  native  of  Germany,  was  of  German  parentage  and  received  his  Doc- 


42  '  W»  I'KsiT)    OF   MISSISSIPPI. 

tor's  degree  at  the  University  of  Heidelberg  in  1853.  On  leaving  the  Ger- 
man University  he  was  elected  Chemist  of  the  Smithsonian  Institution, 
where  he  served  until  his  election  to  the  University  of  Mississippi  in  1866. 
He  infused  into  all  his  work  the  energy  and  thoroughness  of  the  German 
Schools  of  Science. 

In  the  following  session,  1867-68,  using  the  extensive  collections  of  the 
various  surveys  of  the  State  as  a  basis  for  more  local  study,  a  new  course 
of  Practical  Chemistry  and  Geology  was  established,  the  Geological  work 
being  a  special  course  in  Mississippi  Geology.  Besides  this,  the  course 
in  General  Geology  was  given  as  in  previous  years.  This  expansion  of 
the  department  necessitated  more  workers,  and  the  work  became  differ- 
entiated, Dr.  Hilgard,  assisted  by  R.  H.  Loughridge,  doing  the  work  in 
Chemistry,  and  Dr.  George  Little,  assisted  by  E.  A.  Smith,  Ph.D.,  doing 
the  work  in  Geology.  Dr.  Little  was  from  Alabama  and  had  taken  his 
Doctor's  degree  at  the  University  of  Gottingen,  Germany,  in  1859.  Dr. 
Little  was  also  State  Geologist,  having  been  elected  two  years  previously, 
Dr.  Smith  being  Assistant  Geologist. 

Up  to  this  time  the  work  in  Chemistry,  Natural  History  and  Geology 
had  been  merged  under  one  management.  Now  we  find  the  instruction 
in  Chemistry  constituting  one  work  and  that  in  Geology  and  Natural 
History  another,  with  two  instructors  in  each.  All  students  were  re- 
quired to  take  a  half  year  of  Geology  and  a  half  year  of  Mineralogy,  three 
hours  a  week  of  the  first  and  two  hours  a  week  of  the  last.  It  was  a 
Senior  work  in  all  courses. 

In  1862  Congress  gave  to  each  State  a  grant  of  30,000  acres  of  land  for 
each  Senator  and  Representative,  the  proceeds  to  be  used  for  the  estab- 
lishment of  a  College  of  Agriculture  and  Mechanic  Arts.  By  this  grant 
Mississippi  received  210,000  acres,  but  by  Act  of  the  Legislature  this  was 
divided,  two-fifths  of  the  land  coming  to  the  University,  the  other  three- 
fifths  going  to  Alcorn  University.  The  proceeds  of  the  sale  of  this  land 
brought  the  University  $75,600,  with  which  a  School  of  Agriculture  and 
Mechanic  Arts  was  established,  one  of  the  chairs  in  which  was  a  chair  of 
Agricultural  and  Economic  Chemistry  and  Special  Geology  and  Agri- 
culture of  Mississippi.  In  1871  Professor  Hilgard  was  elected  to  this 
chair,  and  was  also  made  State  Geologist,  R.  H.  Loughridge  being  Assist- 
ant State  Geologist  and  Adjunct  Professor  of  Chemistry.  Dr.  Little  was 
also  one  of  the  staff  of  instructors  in  the  new  school,  having  the  chair 
of  Geology  and  Mineralogy. 

Under  the  provisions  of  the  grant  of  land  none  of  the  $75,600  could  be 
used  in  the  erection  of  needed  buildings,  and  as  the  Legislature  failed  to 
make  the  necessary  appropriations  for  that  purpose,  the  school  began  its 
work  under  a  heavy  handicap. 

The  School  of  Agriculture,  which  had  now  become  an  established  feat- 
ure of  the  University,  chiefly  through  the  enthusiastic  and  able  efforts  of 
Dr.  Hilgard,  suffered  a  very  serious  if  not  a  fatal  setback  and  the  Uni- 
versity a  heavy  loss  when,  in  1873,  Dr.  Hilgard  resigned  his  position  to 
accept  one  at  the  University  of  Michigan.  His  position  in  the  Agricul- 
tural School  remained  unfilled.  Dr.  Little,  though  an  able  Geologist, 
gave  little  attention  to  the  agricultural  side  of  the  subject. 


UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI.  43 

In  1875  Dr.  Landon  C.  Garland,  Professor  of  Physics  and  Astronomy, 
was  elected  Acting  Professor  of  Chemistry,  Mineralogy  and  Geology. 
That  one  man  should  have  been  required  to  do  the  work  that  no  less  than 
five  had  been  doing  shows  a  wonderful  shrinkage  in  the  resources  of  the 
University.  But  when  it  is  remembered  that  the  State  was  in  the  throes 
of  reconstruction  there  is  little  reason  for  surprise.  Necessarily  the 
School  of  Agriculture  and  Mechanic  Arts  languished. 

In  1876  R.  W.  Jones,  M.A.,  of  Virginia,  was  elected  Professor  of  Chem- 
istry and  Natural  History,  including  Mineralogy  and  Geology.  Under 
Dr.  Jones,  besides  the  courses  of  instruction  in  Mineralogy  and  General 
Geology,  the  special  course  in  Mississippi  Geology  and  Agriculture  was 
revived.  Now,  for  the  first  time  in  the  history  of  the  University,  we 
find  mention  of  the  fact  that  Mineralogy  was  studied  by  laboratory  meth- 
ods.   This,  however,  was  required  only  of  B.S.  students. 

The  work  proving  too  much  for  one  man,  in  1877  Thos.  D.  Greenwood, 
A.B.,  a  brilliant  graduate  of  the  University  was  appointed  Tutor  to  Dr. 
Jones.  In  1878,  Greenwood  having  died  by  accidental  poisoning,  Jas. 
M.  Buchanon  filled  the  place  of  Assistant  Professor  of  Chemistry  and 
Natural  History.  1879-81  J.  W.  Kilpatrick  was  tutor  in  Natural  His- 
tory, followed  by  W.  E.  Martin,  Dr.  Jones  filling  the  chief  place  until 
1882,  when  Geology  and  Natural  History  were  placed  in  a  separate  depart- 
ment under  Dr.  George  Little.  At  this  time  Mineralogy  was  taught  two 
hours  a  week  for  half  a  year,  Geology  three  hours  a  week  for  half  a  year. 
He  gradually  increased  the  hours  until  in  1888  Mineralogy  and  Geology 
were  each  taught  five  hours  a  week  for  half  a  year. 

In  1889  Natural  History  and  Geology  was  again  merged  with  the  De- 
partment of  Chemistry  under  Dr.  R.  W.  Jones,  with  J.  W.  Johnson,  A.M., 
Assistant.  The  work  in  Geology  and  Mineralogy  continued  under  Pro- 
fessor Jones'  management,  with  assistants  elected  from  time  to  time, 
until  1894,  when  T.  O.  Mabry,  M.A.,  was  put  in  charge  of  Natural  His- 
tory, Geology  and  Mineralogy,  as  Assistant  Professor. 

Professor  Mabry  was  succeeded  in  the  work  in  1899  by  Dr.  W.  S.  Leath- 
ers. In  1904  Professors  Leathers  was  given  an  assistant,  H.  R.  Fulton, 
now  of  Penn.  Agricultural  College.  In  1905  E.  N.  Lowe  was  elected  Assist- 
ant to  Professor  Leathers,  doing  chiefly  the  work  in  Geology  and  Miner- 
alogy. 

In  1906  Albert  F.  Crider,  of  the  U.  S.  Geological  Survey,  was  elected 
Professor  of  Geology.  Professor  Crider,  on  being  elected  State  Geolo- 
gist in  the  same  year,  resigned  this  chair  to  prosecute  the  field  work  of 
the  Survey,  after  only  a  few  months  connection  with  the  University. 

The  election  of  Professor  Crider  as  Professor  of  Geology  placed  Geol- 
ogy in  a  department  by  iteslf  for  the  first  time  in  the  history  of  the  Uni- 
versity. It  had  been  variously  merged  with  Natural  History,  Chemis- 
try, Agriculture  and  Economic  Chemistry,  but  never  before  had  Geology 
and  Mineralogy  constituted  one  department. 

Following  the  resignation  of  Professor  Crider,  Professor  Calvin  S. 
Brown,  of  the  Department  of  Romance  Languages  in  the  University,  was 
offered  the  chair  of  Geology,  Dr.  Brown  being  at  that  time  Assistant  State

Geologist.  Dr.  Brown  preferred  to  continue  in  the  Language  Depart- 
ment and  declined. 

E.  N.  Lowe  was  elected  Acting  Professor  of  Geology  and  Mineralogy. 
In  L908  ln>  was  elected  Professor  of  Geology,  a  few  months  previously 
having  been  elected  Assistant  State  Geologist,  Dr.  Brown  having  resigned 
his  place  on  the  Survey.  With  the  beginning  of  the  session  1908-09  the 
Department  of  Geology  and  Mineralogy  was  liberally  fitted  up  with  much 
needed  apparatus  and  furnishings  and  the  Museum  of  the  State  Collec- 
tion has  been  rearranged  and  placed  in  suitable  quarters  in  the  Science 
Hall,  so  that  it  has  been  possible  to  expand  the  work  along  these  lines. 

The  department  embraces,  1st,  a  course  in  General  Geology;  2d,  a 
course  in  Mineralogy  and  Petrology;  3d,  a  course  in  Mississippi  Geology 
and  Mineral  Products;   4th,  a  course  in  Physiography. 

ENGLISH. 

The  history  of  the  School  of  English  in  the  University  of  Mississippi 
is  broadly  typical  of  the  development  of  English  studies  in  American  col- 
leges. It  presents  the  same  stages  of  evolution  in  general  aspects,  and 
these  respective  stages  are  rather  closely  co-incident  with  their  develop- 
ment in  the  leading  institutions  of  the  country.  We  recognize  four  dis- 
tinct periods  of  this  growth.  Given  by  years  they  are  as  follows:  First 
period.  1848-1857;  second,  1857-1873;  third,  1873-1890;  fourth,  1890  to  the 
present. 

The  above  division  has  been  made  under  the  guidance  of  two  determ- 
ining considerations.  The  chief  of  these  was  the  character  of  the  work 
undertaken  as  this  work  is  indicated  in  the  definite  outlines  of  courses 
and  in  the  descriptive  statements  of  English  study  found  in  the  cata- 
logues; the  other,  which  is  chiefly  determining  only  in  marking  the  divi- 
sion of  the  second  period  from  the  first,  is  the  recognition  given  by  the 
Board  of  Trustees  to  English  in  its  establishment  as  a  separate  depart- 
ment or  in  modifying  it  by  the  creation  of  separate  "schools"  embraced 
by  the  general  department.  It  will  be  understood  that  growth  has  not 
been  made  wholly  "by  leaps  and  bounds."  On  the  contrary,  each  stage 
reveals  a  tendency  toward  the  fully  developed  standards,  aims  and  ideals 
of  its  succeeding  stage.  It  is  true,  however,  that  the  years  which  marked 
the  beginning  of  each  period  witnessed  some  decided,  if  not  revolutionary, 
change  of  purpose  in  the  English  department. 

The  first  period  begins  with  the  opening  of  the  University  and  extends 
to  the  establishment  of  the  "Department  of  English  Literature"  in  1858. 
Ex-Chancellor  Mayes  is  authority  for  the  statement,  in  his  History  of 
Education  in  Mississippi,  that  the  late  Dr.  George  F.  Holmes,  first  presi- 
dent of  the  University,  gave  such  instruction  as  was  afforded  in  English. 
The  catalogue  of  1852-'53  shows  that  President  A.  B.  Longstreet,  in  ad- 
dition to  his  duties  as  president,  had  imposed  upon  him  the  task  of  teach- 
ing a  half  dozen  subjects,  one  of  which  happened  to  be  Rhetoric.  This 
subject  stood  in  the  curriculum  in  the  second  term  of  the  Sophomore  year. 
The  text  was  "Dr.  Blair's  Rhetoric,"  a  very  formidable,  not  to  say  im- 
possible, book;  but  it  was  rich  in  classical  flavor,  abounding  in  allusions

to,  and  quotations  from,  the  best  of  Greek  and  Latin  literatures.  In  the 
year  1856-'57  appear  the  names  of  N.  M.  Crawford,  "Professor  of  Intel- 
lectual and  Moral  Philosophy,"  and  of  Wm.  R.  Barksdale,  "Tutor  in 
Rhetoric,  Logic,  Composition  and  Elocution."  In  the  same  catalogue, 
in  the  statements  of  departments,  these  names  appear  over  the  statement 
describing  the  "Department  of  Belles  Lettres  and  Mental  and  Moral 
Philosophy."  It  appears  that  all  the  instruction  in  English  studies  was 
given  by  Mr.  Barksdale.  The  work  comprised  English  grammar  in  the 
Freshman  year,  rhetoric  and  punctuation  in  the  Sophomore,  and  "the 
study  of  figures  and  the  analysis  of  sentences"  in  the  Junior.  In  the  year 
'57-'58  Wm.  T.  J.  Sullivan  succeeded  Mr.  Barksdale  in  the  position  of 
Tutor. 

At  the  time  the  University  of  Mississippi  was  founded  the  claims  of 
English  for  co-ordinate  recognition  with  Latin,  Greek  and  mathematics 
were  not  admitted,  even  if  such  claims  were  advanced*.  During  this 
first  period,  however,  there  is  a  distinct  movement  towards  the  establish- 
ment of  those  claims.  The  appointment  of  an  instructor,  although  his 
rank  was  only  that  of  a  tutor,  to  give  instruction  in  English  studies  dur- 
ing parts  of  three  years  marks  a  development  from  the  situation  when  the 
whole  of  English  study  was  comprised  in  the  study  of  rhetoric  for  half 
session  under  the  president  of  the  institution,  who  taught  five  other  sub- 
jects. 

In  the  year  1858  the  second  stage  of  the  department's  history  is  inaug- 
urated by  the  election  of  Professor  Wm.  D.  Moore,  M.A.,  to  the  "Chair 
of  English  Literature."  While  the  establishment  of  the  chair  did  not 
result  in  any  very  decided  advance  in  the  courses  given,  the  fact  of  its 
establishment  is  memorably  significant.  Few  institutions  in  the  entire 
country  had  at  that  time  shown  such  appreciation  of  the  importance  of 
the  study  of  the  English  language  and  literature,  and,  as  far  as  I  have  been 
able  to  ascertain,  no  Southern  college  or  university  established  the  chair 
so  early.  The  University  of  Virginia",  greatest  in  influence  and  history 
of  the  universities  of  the  South,  has  had  courses  in  Anglo-Saxon  since 
1825,  but  the  special  department  of  the  English  language  and  literature 
was  not  established  there  until  1882. 

The  advance  made  under  the  professorship  of  Mr.  Moore  is  embraced 
in  the  extension  of  English  work  to  four  years,  the  introduction  of  the 
"study  of  literature"  in  the  Senior  year,  and  the  introduction  of  the  study 
of  Anglo-Saxon.  As  to  what  work  was  done  under  the  indefinite  phrase 
"study  of  literature"  we  cannot  tell.  There  is  recognizable  in  the  de- 
partmental administration  of  Professor  Moore  a  movement  towards  the 
study  of  philology,  as  indicated  in  the  growing  emphasis  placed  on  the 
course  in  Anglo-Saxon.  This  was  probably  in  recognition  of  the  tendency 
of  that  time  to  give  more  importance  to  that  branch  of  English  in  the 
representative  institutions  of  the  country.     This  movement  was  arrested 


The  ends  of  English  study  were  sought  to  be  attained  by  two  accessory£features  of  college 
life.  First,  the  literary  societies  were  largely  depended  upon  to  supply  training  in  composition; 
second,  original  speeches  from  senior  students,  and  compositions,  alternating  with  declamations, 
from  the  other  classes  delivered  before  the  University  body  afforded  additional  training-

during  the  incumbency  of  Professor  S.  G.  Burney,  who  succeeded  to  the 
chair  in  L866,  and  it  remained  for  his  successor  to  give  pre-eminent  im- 
portance to  that  branch  of  English  study  toward  which  Professor  Moore 
was  gradually  moving. 

The  features  worthy  of  note  under  the  administration  of  Professor 
Burney  are:  (1)  the  introducing  of  the  study  of  the  "History  of  English 
Literature,"  (2)  the  gradual  elimination  of  Anglo-Saxon  from  the  course 
of  study,  and  (3)  the  announcement  of  post-graduate  courses  for  such 
as  might  apply  for  them.  During  his  incumbency  the  position  of  "As- 
sistant in  English  Literature"  was  held  by  Edward  Mayes  (1869-70) , 
later  eminent  as  Professor  of  Law  and  Chancellor  of  the  University,  and 
John  W.  Shields  (1S70-72). 

Professor  Burney  resigned  after  the  session  71-72.  The  professor- 
ship was  vacant  in  the  session  72-73,  and  the  department  was  in  charge 
of  Adjunct-Professor  Shields. 

The  session  73-74  begins  the  third  period  in  the  history  of  the  depart- 
ment. Hardly  any  date,  excepting  perhaps  that  which  marks  the  be- 
ginning of  the  fourth  period,  is  so  nearly  epochal  in  the  department's 
growth.  In  that  year  Professor  J.  L.  Johnson  came  to  the  University  as 
"Professor  of  English  Literature  and  Provisional  Instructor  in  Elocu- 
tion." Professor  Johnson  had  very  definite  convictions  as  to  what  should 
constitute  a  college  course  in  English,  and  he  announces  at  length  and  with 
enthusiasm  the  aims  of  his  department.  He  had  been  educated  at  the 
University  of  Virginia,  where  he  had  learned  to  attach  great  importance 
to  "Old  English"  as  forming  not  only  the  basis  but  the  body  for  English 
scholarship.  He  shows  himself  wholly  alive  to  the  educational  movement 
of  his  time,  at  a  period  when  representative  institutions  were  recognizing 
the  eminent  claims  of  English  for  a  large  place  in  a  college  curriculum. 
Although  time  has  proved  that  the  body  of  English  instruction  in  under- 
graduate courses  should  consist  of  work  in  literature  and  composition, 
Professor  Johnson  was  in  harmony  with  the  accepted  ideas  of  the  leading 
English  teachers  of  his  day  in  giving  over-shadowing  prominence  to  the 
study  of  Anglo-Saxon  and  the  historical  development  of  the  language. 
A  single  scientific  fact  which  his  work  emphasized  might  alone  be  con- 
sidered a  revolutionary  contribution.  That  was  that  the  English  lan- 
guage is  not  fashioned  on  the  model  of  the  Latin,  but  is  a  product  of  evo- 
lution, inseperable  from  the  life  of  the  people  who  spoke  it.  In  Profes- 
sor Johnson's  first  catalogue  statement  three  out  of  the  four  years  of  the 
entire  work  were  given  to  the  study  of  language,  and  the  courses  were  all 
based  on  the  idea  of  historical  development.  The  course  of  the  Junior 
year  is  described  by  the  following  analysis:  "Morris'  English  Accidence, 
Earle's  Philology  of  the  English  Tongue,  Professor's  Lectures  on  Linguistic 
Science."  The  "joy  in  widest  commonalty  spread"  could  hardly  have 
extended  to  the  class  in  junior  English  in  the  70's.  The  work  of  the 
senior  year  was  given  up  to  literature.  In  the  first  term  "literary  bi- 
ography and  the  reciprocal  relations  of  literature  and  history"  were. stud- 
ied, with  Shaw's  Complete  Manual  of  English  Literature  as  a  text.  Hale's 
Longer  English  Poems  and  Rolfe's  The  Merchant  of  Venice  were  studied

in  the  second  term.  It  appears  that,  for  some  reason,  the  extensive  work 
in  Anglo-Saxon  which  Professor  Johnson  offered  at  first  was  somewhat 
abridged  in  the  latter  years  of  his  incumbency.  Co-incident  with  this 
there  was  some  extension  of  the  study  of  literature.  A  course  in  Ameri- 
can literature,  for  instance,  was  first  given  in  1886-'87.  In  this  fact  we 
recognize  again  the  law  of  evolution  in  these  stages  of  growth;  the  grad- 
ual growth  of  literature  courses  was  a  movement  toward  the  fourth  stage 
where  literature  should  come  into  its  own  as  the  most  important  part  of 
English  study. 

Between  stages  three  and  four  there  is  a  transition  of  one  year,  the 
session  of  '89-'90.  In  that  year  Professor  R.  M.  Leavell,  since  so  widely 
loved  and  honored  as  Professor  of  Philosophy,  Logic  and  Political  Econ- 
omy in  the  University,  was  called  to  the  chair  of  English  and  Belles  Let- 
tres. The  "school"  of  Belles  Lettres  was  established  upon  the  recom- 
mendation of  Chancellor  Mayes.  A  man  of  fine  general  literary  attain- 
ments himself,  he  appreciated  the  importance  of  giving  this  special  prom- 
inence to  the  study  of  pure  literature,  or  "mere  literature,"  as  it  was 
disparagingly  termed  by  the  conservative  scholars  in  English  of  that  time. 

The  fourth,  and  last,  period  of  the  school's  development  was  signal- 
ized by  the  transfer  of  Professor  William  Rice  Sims  from  the  school 
of  Mental  and  Moral  Philosophy,  Logic  and  Political  Economy  to  the 
school  of  English  and  Belles  Lettres.  The  early  nineties  make  an  im- 
portant period  in  the  teaching  of  English  throughout  the  country.  It 
is  hardly  too  much  to  say  that  the  period  marks  the  complete  estab- 
lishment of  modern  ideas  of  English  instruction.  Two  definite  influences 
contributed  largely  toward  this.  One  was  the  report  of  the  English  de- 
partment of  Harvard  University  on  the  teaching  of  composition  and 
rhetoric,  the  other  was  the  epochal  report  of  the  conference  on  English 
appointed  by  the  Committee  of  Ten.  The  influence  of  these  reports  and 
the  sum  of  undefined  tendencies  prevalent  elsewhere  are  manifest  in  the 
development  of  the  department  of  English  in  the  University  of  Missis- 
sippi during  the  last  decade  of  the  past  century.  The  most  significant 
results  are  found  in  the  introduction  of  entrance  requirements  that  stress 
previous  preparation  in  literature  and  rhetoric,  in  the  differentiation 
effected  between  literature  and  linguistics,  and  in  the  further  differenti- 
ation of  practical  rhetoric  from  each  of  these. 

The  altered  character  of  English  instruction  here  indicated  gave  greater 
influence  and  prominence  to  the  school  than  it  had  had  before.  However, 
the  new  interest  in  English  that  characterized  this  period  was  not  due 
chiefly  to  the  increased  attention  given  to  literature.  By  all  tokens  Pro- 
fessor Sims  added  to  a  brilliant  intellect  unusual  literary  gifts  and  rare 
teaching  ability.  He  retired  from  the  University  in  1895.  In  general 
deas  and  purposes  the  school  has  not  been  altered  radically  since  he  held 
the  chair. 

In  1895  Professor  Dabney  Lipscomb,  an  alumnus  of  the  University  in 
the  class  of  '79,  was  called  to  the  chair.  Under  his  administration  the 
study  of  literature  continued  to  hold  the  chief  place  as  it  had  done  under 
Professor  Sims.     The  noteworthy  feature  of  Professor  Lipscomb's  ad- 


48  UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI. 

ministration  was  the  increased  emphasis  on  entrance  requirements.  The 
statement  in  the  catalogue  of  his  first  year  describes  his  standard:  "Some 
degree  of  literary  culture  must  be  evidenced  by  the  applicant  to  be  tested 
by  a  knowledge  of  the  extent  of  his  reading  and  by  the  manner  in  which 
he  reproduces  orally  or  in  writing  something  that  he  has  recently  read." 
A  list  of  literary  works  are  suggested  for  this  preparation.  In  the  state- 
ment of  the  catalogue  of  the  session  '96-'97  the  study  courses  of  the  South- 
ern Association  of  Preparatory  Schools  and  Colleges  are  adopted  as  en- 
trance requirements  in  English. 

The  present  occupant  of  the  chair  was  elected  in  1904.  Two  features 
may  be  noted  in  the  history  of  the  last  few  sessions.  One  of  them  mani- 
fests itself  in  the  arrangement  of  the  courses  in  literature  according  to  a 
central  purpose  that  gives  unity  to  the  course,  such  as  the  study  of  some 
literary  form,  the  work  of  one  great  writer  or  the  works  of  two  or  more 
great  writers  closely  related,  or  the  literature  of  a  period;  the  other  is 
found  in  the  course  for  freshmen  students,  which  consists  almost  wholly 
of  work  in  composition. 

The  School  of  Belles  Lettres  was  maintained  from  its  establishment 
in  1889-'90  until  1905-'06,  when,  in  view  of  the  fact  that  the  extensive 
inclusion  of  various  types  and  periods  of  literature  embraced  practically 
all  that  had  previously  been  given  as  Belles  Lettres,  upon  the  recommen- 
dation of  the  professor  the  school  of  Belles  Lettres  was  absorbed  by  the 
School  of  English,  and  the  distinction,  which  in  reality  had  ceased  to  ex- 
ist, was  no  longer  maintained  in  the  catalogue. 

The  School  of  Rhetoric  was  established  in  1897  and  Professor  Franklin 
L.  Riley  was  called  to  the  professorship  of  Rhetoric  and  History.  This 
relationship  was  continued  for  three  sessions.  In  1900  the  School  of  Rhet- 
oric was  attached  to  the  schools  of  English  and  Belles  Lettres,  and  Pro- 
fessor Lipscomb  was  given  charge  of  all.  This  grouping  was  maintained 
until  the  session  of  1905-'06  when  Professor  Hubert  A.  Shands  was  called 
to  the  chair  of  Rhetoric  and  Oratory.  At  the  end  of  that  year,  however, 
rhetoric  was  again  attached  to  the  School  of  English,  and  this  arrange- 
ment is  still  retained. 

The  courses  offered  in  the  schools  of  English  and  Rhetoric  for  the  ses- 
sion 1909-'10  are  found  published  in  the  current  catalogue. 

Professor  David  H.  Bishop  has  been  Professor  of  English  since  1904. 

HISTORY. 

No  provision  was  made  for  direct  instruction  in  history  in  the  Uni- 
versity of  Mississippi  in  the  first  decade  after  its  establishment.  With 
the  exception  of  a  reading  course  in  Voltaire's  Histoire  de  Charles  XII,  in 
the  School  of  French,  and  of  a  course  in  Browne's  History  of  Greek  and 
Roman  Classical  Literature,  in  the  Schools  of  Greek  and  Latin,  History 
was  not  then  taught  even  incidentally  in  the  institution. 

The  first  efforts  to  supply  this  deficiency  seem  to  have  been  made  in 
1857  by  Prof.  Wilson  G.  Richardson,  of  the  Department  of  Latin  and 
Modern  Languages.  Faint  symptoms  of  such  a  development  are  to  be 
found,  however,  in  an  announcement  that  appeared  in  the  catalogue  of 


UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI.  49 

the  tenth  session  (1857-58).  It  reads  as  follows:  "The  history  of  the 
Roman  people,  the  state  of  the  arts  among  them,  their  domestic  life, 
public  and  private  usages,  their  mythology,  laws,  education,  geography 
and  antiquities,  are  severally  developed  in  expounding  Roman  authors." 
In  the  catalogue  of  the  following  year  Roman  History  appeared  in  the 
summary  of  courses  for  a  full  session  of  the  Sophomore  year.  The  fol- 
lowing works  were  "recommended  to  students":  "History  of  Rome  to 
the  Third  Punic  War— Arnold;  From  the  Third  Punic  War  to  the  Empire 
— Liddell;  From  Augustus  to  the  Antonines — Schmitz  or  Putz;  From 
the  Antonines  to  the  Capture  of  Constantinople  by  the  Turks  in  1453— 
Smith's  Expurgated  Gibbon;  For  the  Earlier  period  of  Roman  History 
— Niebuhr." 

In  the  catalogue  of  the  following  session  this  announcement  was  re- 
peated and  a  course  in  English  and  American  History  for  the  first  half  of 
the  Senior  year  was  added.  It  is  impossible  to  ascertain,  however,  what 
texts  were  used  or  in  what  department  the  subjects  were  taught. 

During  the  first  five  years  after  the  War  of  Secession  the  only  histor- 
ical instruction  in  the  University  was  a  course  in  Roman  History  given 
by  the  Professor  of  Latin  to  students  in  the  Sophomore  class. 

Upon  the  adoption  of  a  new  curriculum  in  1870,  General  History  was 
prescribed  in  every  course  leading  to  a  Bachelor's  degree,  as  follows: 
Half  of  the  Freshman  year  for  B.S.  students,  the  entire  Sophomore  year 
for  B.A.  and  B.P.  students,  and  the  entire  Senior  year  for  Engineering 
students.  Wilson's  Outlines  was  the  adopted  text  in  all  of  these  classes. 
History  and  Political  Economy  were  given  for  the  first  time  a  place  among 
the  optional  studies  for  the  M.A.  degree.  History  was  added  to  the  chair 
of  Metaphysics,  Logic,  and  Political  Economy,  then  held  by  James  A. 
Lyon,  D.D.  Two  hours  a  week  were  devoted  to  this  subject.  It  is  inter- 
esting to  note  that  in  the  catalogues  of  that  period  the  scope  of  the  His- 
tory course  is  shown  by  the  expressjon  "Ancient,  Middle  and  Modern 
History,  Ancient  Geography  and  Chronology." 

It  seems  that  at  this  time  (1870)  the  early  creation  of  a  separate  chair 
of  History  and  Political  Economy  was  contemplated,  since  these  sub- 
jects appear  in  the  catalogue  for  the  first  time  as  a  separate  school.  But 
in  a  note  which  follows  an  announcement  is  made  to  the  effect  that  "for 
the  present"  this  chair  and  that  of  Metaphysics  and  Logic  "shall  be  filled 
by  the  same  incumbent." 

In  the  catalogue  of  1872-73  Dr.  Lyons'  name  appears  as  "Professor  of 
Metaphysics  and  Logic,  Provisional  Professor  of  Political  Economy  and 
History."  Mr.  A.  H.  Whitfield*,  who  had  graduated  with  first  honors 
in  1871  and  had  served  as  Assistant  in  Greek  during  the  following  session, 
was  then  (1873)  given  additional  work  as  instructor  in  History.  In  the 
same  year  a  prize  of  forty  dollars  for  efficiency  in  History  was  awarded  to 
James  M.  Sharpe,  of  Pike  County.  Two  years  of  History  was  required  of 
B.S.  students  and  a  two  hours  course  in  the  same  subject  was  also  required 
of  Freshmen  students  in  the  newly  added  "School  of  Agriculture  and 
Mechanic  Arts."

50  '   DIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI. 

At  the  end  of  the  following  session  Mr.  Whitfield  was  promoted  to  the 
rank  of  Adjunct  Professor  of  Greek,  and  the  subject  of  History  was  dropped 
from  his  title.  Although  no  provision  seems  to  have  been  made  at  that 
time  for  teaching  history,  a  prize  of  forty  dollars  "for  proficiency  in  His- 
tory" was  that  year  awarded  to  J.  W.  Kilpatrick,  of  Corinth,  and  Thomas 
W.  Stockard,  of  Lowndes  County.  The  usual  references  were  made  to 
History  in  the  summaries  of  courses,  but  no  mention  of  the  subject  is 
found  in  the  detailed  statements  of  the  different  schools  of  the  University. 

In  the  catalogue  of  1876-77  the  name  of  Gen.  Alex.  P.  Stewart  appears 
as  Chancellor  and  Professor  of  History.  No  changes  were  made  at  that 
time  in  the  History  courses  for  University  classes,  but  the  subject  was 
added  to  the  curriculum  of  the  preparatory  department,  Unites  States 
History  (Swinton's)  being  required  in  the  second  term  of  the  first  year. 
History  was  not,  however,  a  required  subject  for  admission  to  the  Uni- 
versity or  to  the  School  of  History. 

In  the  following  year  General  Stewart  was  given  the  work  in  Political 
Economy  in  addition  to  his  other  duties.  History  was  then  prescribed 
for  the  first  year  in  the  B.P.  course  and  the  third  year  in  the  B.A.  course, 
but  was  omitted  entirely  from  the  B.S.  course. 

This  requirement  continued  until  1880  when  history  was  given  through- 
out the  third  year  in  the  B.A.  and  B.P.  courses.  At  that  time  a  two  years' 
course  in  United  States  History  was  required  of  preparatory  students, 
Swinton's  and  Ridpath's  texts  being  used.  Two  years  later  the  prepara- 
tory course  was  reduced  to  two  years,  and  the  subject  of  United  States 
History  was  given  in  only  one  of  them. 

No  further  changes  appear  in  the  announcements  of  history  courses 
until  1884,  when  the  prescribed  work  in  that  subject  was  reduced  to  the 
latter  half  of  the  fourth  year  for  B.A. -and  B.P.  students. 

In  the  catalogue  of  1885-86  appears  the  statement  that  "History  has 
been  assigned  temporarily  to  the  Professor  of  Modern  Languages."  It 
appears,  however,  that  this  assignment  was  unsatisfactory,  as  Chancellor 
Stewart  continued  to  give  instruction  in  Ancient  and  Modern  History  and 
Chronology  during  the  second  term  of  the  Senior  year  in  the  courses  for 
the  B.A.  and  B.P.  degrees,  and  the  required  work  in  Greek  and  Roman 
History  was  given  by  the  Professors  of  Greek  and  Latin  respectively. 
An  undesignated  course  in  "History"  was  also  prescribed  for  the  second 
term  of  the  Junior  year  for  B.A.  students.  Roman  History  in  the  second 
term  of  the  Freshman  year  and  an  undesignated  course  in  "History" 
throughout  the  same  term  of  the  Sophomore  year  were  prescribed  for  the 
B.S.  degree. 

In  the  following  year  the  work  in  History  was  assigned  "temporarily" 
to  the  chair  of  Modern  Languages,  then  held  by  Prof.  Charles  W.  Hutson.* 
The  catalogue  of  that  year  stated  that  History  was  "a  required  study  in 
the  B.A.  course;  not  in  any  other."  The  following  extract  from  the  cat- 
alogue of  1887-88  indicates  that  Professor  Hutson  accepted  the  new  as- 
signment with  some  misgivings:  "The  time  forbids  any  thorough  explo- 
ration of  so  vast  a  field.     It  is  assumed  that  the  student  comes  to  it  here

UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI.  51 

with  some  preparation  received  in  the  training  schools  and  from  private 
reading.  During  the  half  year's  daily  attendance  on  lectures,  with  some 
practice  in  individual  research,  the  student's  mind  is  impressed  with  an 
outline  of  the  science  of  history.  The  method  of  instruction  is  partly 
by  lectures."  The  reader  will  appreciate  the  situation  if  he  will  bear  in 
mind  the  fact  that,  in  addition  to  his  work  in  History,  Professor  Hutson 
was  expected  to  give  courses  in  French,  German,  Spanish  and  Italian. 

In  1889  "A  School  of  History,  of  one  year's  course"  is  published  as  one 
of  the  nineteen  schools  of  the  University,  "each  being  independent  of  the 
others."  In  the  same  year  Prof.  W.  R.  Sims  became  "Professor  of  Men- 
tal and  Moral  Philosophy,  of  Logic,  of  History  and  of  Political  Science." 
The  extent  of  his  history  work  is  indicated  by  the  announcement  of  only 
one  course  in  the  subject  ("General  Sketch  of  Mediaeval  and  Modern 
History,  Geography  and  Chronology"),  and  this  extended  through  only 
half  of  a  session.  An  entrance  examination  in  United  States  History  was 
then  required  for  the  first  time  for  admission  to  this  school,  but  not  for 
admission  to  the  University. 

The  annual  catalogue  for  1890-91  announces  a  post-graduate  course 
on  "Mississippi  as  a  Province  and  as  a  Territory,  based  on  the  Claiborne 
collection  of  original  manuscripts,"  which  had  been  recently  deposited 
at  the  University  by  an  Act  of  the  State  Legislature. 

In  1890  Prof.  P.  H.  Eager*  became  Professor  of  Mental  and  Moral 
Philosophy,  Logic,  History  and  Political  Economy.  He  was  assisted  by 
a  worthy  young  law  student,  Mr.  A.  B.  Amis,  whose  official  title  was  "Tutor 
in  History."  A  special  course  in  English  History  was  then  added  to  the 
curriculum.  In  the  following  year  five  hours  a  week  for  a  half  session  were 
required  in  Mediaeval  and  Modern  History  with  extra  readings  "on  epochs 
of  commanding  interest."  The  same  time  was  also  devoted  to  a  course 
based  on  Greene's  Short  History  of  the  English  People. 

In  1891  Professor  Eager  was  succeeded  by  Professor  R.  M.  Leavell.f 
In  the  following  year  Mr.  L.  B.  Howry  became  Fellow  in  History.  A 
course  in  American  History  was  then  announced  in  connection  with  that 
in  English  History,  the  work  in  the  latter  subject  being  probably  abridged 
to  provide  therefor. 

In  the  session  of  1893-94  the  History  course  was  given  by  Professor 
Leavell  without  an  assistant.  The  work  was  then  organized  as  follows: 
Ancient  History,  throughout  the  Sophomore  year,  two  hours;  Mediaeval 
and  Modern  History  with  some  work  in  English  and  American  History 
throughout  the  Junior  year,  three  hours.  Both  of  these  courses  were  made 
conditional  requirements  for  the  B.A.  degree,  choice  being  given  between 
them  and  Logic  and  Political  Economy.  They  were  also  offered  in  elect- 
ives  for  the  B.S.  degree. 

In  a  course  of  study  for  high  schools  published  in  the  catalogue  for 
1894-95  no  mention  is  made  of  Ancient  History  or  Mediaeval  and  Modern 
History,  and,  strange  to  say,  United  States  History  and  English  History 
appear  under  the  title  "An  English  Course  for  High  Schools."

52  I  NIVBR8IT1    OF    MISSISSIPPI. 

In  1806  Mr.  R.  E.  Wilbourn  became  Fellow  in  History  and  English, 
which  position  he  held  for  two  sessions.  During  this  time  there  was  an 
increased  amount  of  library  work  in  connection  with  the  History  course. 
Readings  were  regularly  assigned  in  addition  to  the  text-book  and  special 
examinations  were  given  in  the  same  from  time  to  time. 

To  relieve  two  over-crowded  schools,  the  subjects  of  History  and  Rhet- 
oric were  temporarily  combined  to  form  a  new  chair  in  June,  1897.  Frank- 
lin L.  Riley,  Ph.D.,  *then  President  of  Hillman  College,  was  elected  to  this 
position  with  the  title  of  Professor  of  History  and  Rhetoric.  Formal 
historical  instruction  in  Greek  and  Roman  History  by  the  schools  of  Greek 
and  Latin  was  discontinued  in  1S99,  all  of  the  work  in  Ancient  History 
being  given  to  the  new  chair.  After  the  combination  of  History  and 
Rhetoric  in  the  same  chair  had  continued  three  years,  the  development 
of  the  History  work  necessitated  their  separation.  The  subject  of  Rhet- 
oric was  then  given  back  to  the  chair  of  English,  the  Professor  of  English 
being  given  an  assistant,  and  the  former  Professor  of  History  and  Rhet- 
oric was  given  the  chair  of  History,  which  position  he  still  fills. 

The  rapid  growth  of  the  School  of  History  led,  in  1905,  to  the  employ- 
ment of  Beverly  W.  Bond,  Ph.D.,t  as  Assistant  Professor  of  History.  As  a 
result  several  new  courses  were  added  in  the  following  session.  But  in 
pursuance  of  a  policy  of  retrenchment,  in  June,  1906,  the  assistant  profes- 
sorship was  abolished.  This  necessitated  the  reorganization  of  the  work 
at  the  beginning  of  the  next  session  and  the  cancellation  of  four  of  the 
courses  which  had  been  announced.  The  development  of  the  School  of 
History  was  thereby  temporarily  retarded.  After  the  opening  of  the 
session  of  1906-7  a  slight  degree  of  relief  was  afforded  the  school  by  the 
appointment  of  Mr.  J.  C.  Johnson  to  the  position  of  Reader  in  History. 
In  the  following  session  Mr.  S.  P.  Walker  became  Reader  in  History,  Mr. 
Johnson  having  become  Professor  of  Oratory.  In  the  same  year  a  legis- 
lative appropriation  of  upwards  of  a  thousand  dollars  was  made  avail- 
able for  the  purchase  of  books  for  the  School  of  History. 

Little  progress  was  made  in  the  development  of  the  school  in  the  ses- 
sion of  1908-09,  though  some  important  plans  were  made  which  have 
characterized  the  work  of  the  current  year.  At  present  the  Professor  of 
History  is  assisted  by  two  Instructors,  Mr.  Fred  M.  Witty  and  Mr.  S.  P. 
Stubblefield,  and  by  a  Fellow,  Mr.  A.  D.  Somerville. 

Certain  phases  of  the  development  of  this  department  since  1897  are 
here  given  a  topical  treatment,  as  follows: 

ENTRANCE    REQUIREMENTS. 

The  subject  of  United  States  History  was  required  for  admission  to 
the  School  of  History  in  1897.  Four  years  later  the  requirement  was 
raised  by  the  addition  of  a  year's  work  in  General  History.  In  1904  a 
year's  work  in  Ancient  or  Mediaeval  and  Modern  History  was  substi- 
tuted for  the  requirement  in  General  History.  Beginning  with  the  ses- 
sion of  1910-11  three  years  of  high  school  work  will  be  required  for  entrance

to  University  classes,  in  History,  as  follows:  One  year  each  in  Ancient 
History,  in  Mediaeval  and  Modern  or  English  History,  and  in  United  States 
History. 

HISTORY   COURSES. 

In  1897  a  Senior  optional  course  of  three  hours  in  the  Political  and 
Constitutional  History  of  the  United  States  was  added  to  those  hitherto 
offered.  Four  years  later  a  two-hour  optional  course  in  English  Consti- 
tutional History  was  added  to  the  curriculum.  A  course  of  two  hours  a 
week  in  Nineteenth  Century  History  was  first  offered  in  1904.  Upon  the 
addition  of  Dr.  Beverly  W.  Bond  to  the  teaching  force  in  History  in  1905 
two  other  new  courses  were  given  as  follows:  Diplomatic  History  of  the 
United  States,  two  hours  a  week  throughout  the  session,  and  Methods  of 
Teaching  History,  one  hour  a  week  throughout  the  session.  In  1907  a 
seminary  course  in  American  History  was  given  for  the  first  time.  In 
the  following  session  a  two  hours  lecture  course  in  Political  History  of 
the  South  was  introduced.  The  History  work  was  also  made  to  begin  in 
the  Freshman  instead  of  the  Sophomore  year.  The  following  courses  in 
History  are  being  given  in  the  current  session:

MISSISSIPPI   HISTORICAL.  SOCIETY. 

The  Mississippi  Historical  Society  was  organized  at  the  University 
of  Mississippi  in  1890,  and  was  incorporated  by  the  Legislature  in  the 
same  year.  Its  membership  has  always  embraced  many  members  of  the 
Faculty  of  the  University,  and  its  first  Secretary  and  Treasurer  was  Dr. 
W.  R.  Sims,  who  was  then  Professor  of  History  in  connection  with  other 
subjects  in  this  institution. 

During  the  first  four  years  after  its  organization,  the  Society  held 
frequent  meetings  and  collected  some  relics  and  documents,  the  most 
important  being  the  Claiborne  collection  of  manuscripts.  No  contribu- 
tions to  State  history  were  prepared  or  publications  issued  under  its  aus- 
pices. Then  followed  a  period  of  four  years,  during  which  the  Society 
was  in  a  moribund  state. 

Shortly  after  entering  upon  his  work  as  Professor  of  History  and  Rhet- 
oric, in  1897,  the  present  Professor  of  History  was  requested  to  accept  the 
position  of  Secretary  and  Treasurer  of  the  then  defunct  Society.  A  suc- 
cessful effort  was  made  to  awaken  wider  interest  and  to  enlist  a  larger 
membership. 

Throughout  its  history  this  Society  has  had  its  headquarters  at  the 
University  of  Mississippi.  Its  policies  have  for  the  most  part  been  out- 
lined by  the  secretaries  who  have  been  connected  with  the  School  of  His- 
tory in  this  institution.    The  students  and  alumni  of  the  University  have 


UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI.  55 

also  been  among  the  most  valued  contributors  to  State  history  since  1897. 
The  School  of  History  in  the  University  of  Mississippi  has  rendered  the 
following  services  to  the  cause  of  State  and  Southern  History  since  1897: 

1.  Reorganized  the  Mississippi  Historical  Society  and  enlarged  its 
activities. 

2.  Stimulated  interest  in  original  research  by  means  of  public  histor- 
ical meetings. 

3.  Procured  special  biennial  legislative  appropriations  for  State  His- 
tory. 

4.  Directed  the  work  of  the  Mississippi  History  Commission,  which 
prepared  the  most  elaborate  report  ever  published  on  the  documentary 
sources  of  State  History. 

5.  Induced  the  Legislature  to  establish  a  State  Department  of  Ar- 
chives and  History,  with  headquarters  in  the  Capitol. 

6.  Edited  ten  volumes  of  Publications  (4,517  pages),  which  contain 
238  contributions  relating  to  almost  every  period  and  phase  of  State  His- 
tory. 

7.  Edited  A  Political  History  of  the  South  ("The  South  in  the  Building 
of  the  Nation"  Series.) 

OBIGTOAL  BE8EABOH. 

With  a  view  to  promoting  an  interest  in  original  research,  the  Uni- 
versity Historical  Society  was  organized  in  April,  1898.  Monthly  meet- 
ings were  held  and  several  valuable  contributions  to  State  History  were 
read  before  it  during  the  period  of  its  activity.  It  did  not  fully  meet 
the  demands  of  the  situation,  however,  as  no  provision  was  made  where-

BIOLOGY  AND  PHYSIOLOGY. 

It  seems  that  the  work  of  this  school  was  done  for  the  first  time  in  the 
University  in  the  form  of  natural  history.  The  catalogue  of  1869-'70 
includes  a  description  of  the  courses  under  the  direction  of  Dr.  E.  W. 
Hilgard.  Doctor  Hilgard  was  the  professor  at  that  time  of  Biology, 
Chemistry  and  Geology.  During  the  year  of  1870-71  Dr.  George  Little 
was  made  State  geologist  and  Eugene  Smith,  Ph.D.,  now  State  geologist 
of  Alabama,  was  elected  as  assistant  geologist.  It  appears  that  a  few 
elementary  courses  were  given  in  the  institution  in  the  biological  sub- 
jects. For  the  following  two  or  three  years  the  courses  were  enlarged  to 
some  extent,  but  there  was  very  little  if  any  laboratory  work  done.  The 
chair  was  declared  vacant  during  the  year  1875-'76.  Beginning  with  the 
year  1876-'77  Richard  W.  Jones  was  made  professor  of  chemistry  and  nat- 
ural history,  with  Louis  L.  Mclnnis,  A.B.,  as  tutor.  During  the  session 
of  1877-78  Mr.  Greenwood  continued  as  tutor  and  Dr.  James  M.  Buchanan, 
now  at  the  head  of  the  State  insane  asylum  at  Meridian,  served  as  the 
assistant  in  Chemistry.  From  1879-'81  Joshua  W.  Kilpatrick  acted  as 
tutor  and  William  E.  Martin  was  elected  to  fill  this  position  for  the  year 
1881-'82.  In  June,  1882,  the  Board  of  Trustees  deemed  it  advisable  to 
divide  the  chair.  Dr.  Jones  was  continued  as  the  professor  of  Chemistry 
and  Dr.  George  Little  was  elected  to  fill  the  chair  of  Natural  History. 
This  arrangement  was  continued  until  the  year  1889,  when  Doctor  Little 
resigned  and  Dr.  Richard  W.  Jones  was  again  chosen  to  the  combination 
chair  of  Natural  History,  Geology  and  Chemistry.  It  was  evident  that 
the  work  was  too  heavy  for  one  man  and  Dr.  John  W.  Johnson  was  made 
assistant  professor  of  Mathematics,  English  and  Natural  History  in  1889- 
'90,  and  Thos.  Ovid  Mabry  served  as  tutor  in  the  department.  During  the 
same  year  Frank  Clark  Holmes,  B.S.,  was  elected  as  a  fellow  in  Natural 
History  and  Geology.  For  the  first  time  in  the  history  of  the  University 
the  work  in  Natural  History  was  separated  from  that  of  Chemistry,  and 
Thos.  Ovid  Mabry,  M.S.,  was  chosen  as  the  assistant  professor.  In  June, 
1895,  Prof.  Mabry  obtained  a  leave  of  absence  and  Dr.  W.  S.  Leathers 
filled  the  vacancy  until  April  of  1896  when  Prof.  Mabry  returned  to 
the  institution.  The  position  was  filled  most  acceptably  by  Prof.  Mabry 
until  June,  1898  when  he  resigned.  The  chair  remained  vacant  for  a  period 
of  one  year,  and  in  June,  1899,  Dr.  W.  S.  Leathers  was  elected  to  fill  the 
vacancy  as  an  assistant  professor.  The  Board,  in  1903,  made  the  chair 
a  full  professorship,  and  at  that  time  the  medical  department  was  organ- 
ized and  this  necessitated  the  appointment  of  an  assistant  in  the  depart- 
ment.    Mr.  Harry  Fulton  was  chosen  for  this  position.     At  the  close  of 


58  UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI. 

this  session  Mr.  Fulton  resigned  to  accept  a  fellowship  in  the  University 
of  Missouri  and  Dr.  E.  N.  Lowe,  who  was  at  the  time  doing  graduate 
work  in  the  department,  was  elected  to  the  position.  Owing  to  the  de- 
mand for  geological  work  and  the  enlargment  of  the  biological  department 
it  was  decided  to  divide  the  chair  in  June,  190S,  into  Biology  and  Physiol- 
ogy and  Geology.  Dr.  E.  N.  Lowe  was  then  made  the  professor  of  Ge- 
ology and  Mineralogy  and  Dr.  W.  S.  Leathers  was  continued  as  the 
professor  of  Biology  and  Physiology,  with  Mr.  Robert  C.  Rhodes,  M.A., 
of  Vanderbilt  University  acting  as  the  assistant  in  Biology  and  Physi- 
ology. 

The  work  of  the  department  has  steadily  developed  and  at  the  present 
time  it  has  the  largest  attendance  in  its  history. 

ORATORY. 

The  history  of  the  School  of  Oratory  and  Elocution  in  the  University 
falls  naturally  into  two  periods,  the  first  extending  from  the  founding  of 
the  University  to  the  year  1885,  the  second  from  1885  to  the  present  time. 
During  the  first  period  instruction  in  public  speaking  was  given  in  con- 
junction with  the  work  of  other  schools.  During  the  second  period  pub- 
lic speaking  has  held  the  rank  of  a  distinct  school. 

The  earliest  discoverable  announcement  of  this  work  is  that  published 
in  the  catalogue  of  1853-'54,  under  the  heading  of  Elocution  and  Composi- 
tion. "Two  members  of  the  Senior  class,  in  alphabetical  order,  deliver 
original  orations  on  each  Monday  afternoon  in  the  presence  of  the  faculty 
and  the  students  assembled.  The  three  lower  classes  declaim,  also  in 
rotation,  and  exhibit  original  compositions  on  the  first  Monday  of  each 
month  to  their  respective  professors."  This  seems  to  have  been  the  mode 
of  training  used  through  all  the  earlier  years  of  the  institution  up  to  the 
year  1856. 

It  may  be  observed,  in  passing,  that  all  the  old  catalogues  announce 
the  Hermaean  and  the  Phi  Sigma  Literary  Societies  as  student  organiza- 
tions, established  for  the  improvement  of  their  members  in  Elocution, 
Composition,  Extempore  Speaking  and  Debate,  and  commend  these  so- 
cieties as  "most  important  auxiliaries  in  promoting  the  great  objects  of 
the  institution."  The  first  formal  instruction  in  Elocution  was  given  in 
1856-'57  along  with  English,  Rhetoric  and  Logic  in  the  department  of 
Belles  Lettres,  Moral  and  Mental  Philosophy  under  Professor  N.  M. 
Crawford,  D.D.,  and  Mr.  W.  R.  Barksdale,  B.A.,  tutor.  The  text-books 
used  were  Caldwell's  Manual  of  Elocution  and  Rush's  Philosophy  of  the 
Voice.  This  course  was  continued  in  the  same  department  the  next  year, 
but  was  under  charge  of  Mr.  William  T.  J.  Sullivan,  Tutor  in  Rhetoric, 
Logic,  Composition  and  Elocution.  When,  in  1858,  English  Literature 
became  a  separate  department  under  Professor  William  D.  Moore,  M.A., 
Elocution  was  included  in  this  department  and  was  required  as  an  ac- 
companiment of  the  work  in  English  throughout  the  course.  This  ar- 
rangement continued  till  1861. 

From  the  resumption  of  University  work  in  1865  till  1868  Professor 


UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI.  59 

S.  G.  Burney,  D.D.,,  of  the  department  of  English  Literature  offered  a 
course  essentially  the  same  as  that  just  mentioned  above,  basing  his  work 
upon  Caldwell's  Manual  of  Elocution,  and  requiring  compositions  and 
declamations  throughout  the  course.  In  the  catalogue  of  1867-'68  the 
Board  of  Trustees  announce  their  offer  of  two  gold  medals  as  prizes  to 
students  of  the  Sophomore  class  for  excellence  in  Elocution.  The  year 
1868  is  marked  by  the  separation  of  Elocution  from  the  department  of 
English,  provision  then  being  made  that  "the  practical  exercises  of  all 
the  college  classes  in  Elocution  and  English  Composition  be  under  charge 
of  the  department  of  Logic,  Metaphysics  and  Political  Science."  Pro- 
fessor F.  A.  Shoup,  M.A.,  was  the  head  of  this  department.  This  arrange- 
ment continued  also  from  1869  to  1872  under  Professor  James  A.  Lyon, 
D.D.  During  the  last  two  years  of  this  work  Professor  Lyon  gave  a  Jun- 
ior course  in  The  Principles  of  Eloquence.  The  next  year,  however,  Elo- 
cution was  shifted  back  to  its  former  position.  The  catalogue  of  that 
year  announces  a  department  of  English  Literature,  Composition  and 
Elocution,  under  Adjunct  Professor  J.  W.  Shields,  B.A.  In  1873  Profes- 
sor John  Lipscomb  Johnson  was  placed  at  the  head  of  this  department, 
with  the  title  of  Professor  of  English  Literature  and  Provisional  Instructor 
in  Elocution.  Doctor  Johnson  conducted  all  training  in  public  speaking, 
then,  continuously  up  to  the  year  1885,  giving  instruction  in  Enunciation 
and  in  Gesture,  and  requiring  in  all  courses  weekly  exercises  in  class  de- 
bates and  in  declamation. 

While  it  is  regretted  that  the  catalogue  statements  of  courses  offered 
in  Oratory  during  the  first  period  are,  in  the  main,  so  brief  and  general  as 
to  give  but  an  inadequate  notion  of  the  scope  and  character  of  the  instruc- 
tion, yet,  from  the  scholarship  of  the  professors  who  had  charge  of  the  work 
and  from  the  distinction  achieved  by  men  who  were  trained  here — the  best 
criteria — it  must  be  inferred  that  this  subject,  in  spite  of  its  subordination 
to  other  schools,  maintained  a  high  standard  of  excellence. 

The  Board  of  Trustees,  on  June"25,  1884,  passed  a  resolution  ordering 
"that  the  matter  of  the  election  of  a  teacher  of  Elocution  in  this  Uni- 
versity be  referred  to  the  committee  to  meet  and  report  to  the  Board  in 
August."  The  report  of  this  committee  was  as  follows:  "That  the 
Executive  Committee  be  authorized  to  employ  a  suitable  man,  specially 
fitted  for  that  duty,  to  teach  Elocution,  at  a  monthly  salary,  for  such 
time  during  each  term  as  they  may  find  it  expedient  to  employ  such  teach- 
er." This  resolution  was  adopted.  At  the  meeting  of  the  Board,  on 
June  27,  1885,  a  motion  was  made  "that  Miss  Sallie  McGee  Isom  be  and 
she  is  hereby  employed,  at  the  salary  and  on  the  terms  now  paid  to  tutors, 
to  teach  Elocution  in  this  University  during  the  ensuing  session."  Ac- 
tion on  the  matter,  however,  was  postponed  until  the  following  September. 
On  September  2,  1885,  the  motion  was  adopted.  Within  a  few  years, 
however,  the  merits  of  the  school  thus  established  were  recognized,  the 
salary  of  the  instructor  was  raised  and  work  done  in  the  school  was  counted 
toward  the  baccalaureate  degrees.  Miss  Isom's  announcement  of  her 
courses  of  study,  as  found  in  the  catalogue  of  1886,  was  substantially  as 
follows.     "The  purpose  of  the  course  is  to  produce  effective  readers  and 


60  rv;i  BRSITJ  OF  MISSISSIPPI. 

speakers,  to  substitute  natural  methods  of  expression  for  the  faulty  de- 
livery prevalent  in  the  pulpit,  on  the  platform  and  on  the  stage.  The 
course  covers  the  entire  range  of  expression.  To  professional  students 
it  is  a  course  practically  necessary,  and  to  others  it  is  of  great  value  as 
conducive  to  health  and  personal  accomplishment."  The  subjects  of 
study  were:  Physical  Training,  Respiration,  Vocal  Culture,  Articula- 
tion, Gesture,  Inflection,  Emphasis,  Analysis,  Dramatic  Reading.  The 
text-books  used  were:  Shoemaker's  Practical  Elocution,  Best  Things  from 
Best  Authors,  Selected  Plays  cf  Shakespeare,  The  Delsarte  System  of  Ora- 
tory. The  general  plan  of  the  work  remained  essentially  unchanged  up 
to  1905.  Near  the  end  of  April  of  that  year  the  chair  was  made  vacant 
by  Miss  Isom's  death.  In  her  death  the  University  lost  a  most  consci- 
entious and  efficient  instructor,  and  the  cause  of  Elocution  a  most  ardent 
advocate  and  an  artist  of  the  highest  rank. 

The  School  of  Elocution  was  succeeded  the  next  year  by  a  School  of 
Rhetoric  and  Oratory  under  charge  of  Professor  Hubert  A.  Shands,  Ph.D. 
The  courses  of  study  offered  by  Professor  Shands  were  courses  in  Rhetoric 
and  Composition,  including  Poetry  and  the  short  story,  and  courses  in 
Argumentation  and  Debate.  At  the  end  of  the  session  of  1905-'06  the 
department  was  discontinued  and  for  two  years  thereafter  no  oratorical 
work  at  all  was  offered  by  the  University.  In  June,  1908,  in  response  to 
a  petition  of  the  students  of  the  University  the  school  was  re-established 
under  the  name  of  the  Department  of  Oratory,  and  Professor  John  Clarke 
Johnson  was  placed  at  the  head  of  it.  Briefly  stated  the  courses  of  study 
now  offered  include  both  Elocution,  with  training  in  Vocal  Expression  and 
in  Gesture,  and  Oratory  proper,  with  study  and  practice  in  Argumenta- 
tion, Brief  Drawing  and  Debate,  in  the  composition  and  delivery  of  orig- 
inal orations,  and  in  Extempore  Speaking. 

FINE  ARTS. 

Throughout  the  year  1907-'08  a  course  in  the  history  and  appreciation 
of  the  fine  arts  was  given  by  Dr.  Calvin  S.  Brown,  professor  of  Romance 
Languages.  The  course  dealt  especially  with  architecture,  sculpture  and 
painting,  but  touched  upon  music,  poetry  and  the  minor  arts,  such  as 
pottery,  metal  work,  stained  glass,  mosaics,  etc.  The  course  was  restricted 
to  Juniors  and  Seniors  and  enrolled  twelve  students.  Near  the  end  of 
the  year  an  art  exhibition  was  held,  embracing  reproductions  of  many 
famous  paintings,  statues  and  buildings,  paintings  by  local  artists  and 
examples  of  brass,  bronze,  copper,  pottery,  cameos,  etc.,  loaned  from  the 
homes  of  Oxford  and  the  University. 


UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI.  61 


THE  DEPARTMENT  OF  LAW. 

The  Department  of  Law  was  established  in  the  year  1854  by  an  Act 
of  the  Legislature,  which  amended  the  charter  of  the  University  in  response 
to  a  memorial  of  the  trustees  of  the  institution  presented  in  their  behalf 
by  one  of  their  number,  the  Honorable  Jacob  Thompson. 

William  F.  Stearns,  LL.D.,  a  prominent  member  of  the  Holly  Springs 
Bar,  was  elected  to  the  "Chair  of  Law  and  Governmental  Science"  thus 
created. 

The  prescribed  course  of  study  for  the  degree  of  bachelor  of  laws  in- 
cluded two  sessions  of  ten  months  each. 

It  is  interesting  to  note  that  at  that  early  date  a  composite  course  of 
law  and  letters  was  given  as  indicated  by  the  following  statements  taken 
from  the  catalogue : 

"The  Senior  Collegiate  Class  and  the  Junior  Class  of  law  students 
proper  pursue  together,  under  the  instruction  of  the  law  professor,  the 
studies  of  International  and  Constitutional  Law."  Likewise  law  stu- 
dents were  allowed,  without  extra  charge,  to  attend  lectures  in  the  schools 
of  letters  and  science  with  the  consent  of  the  professors. 

The  Socratic  method  of  instruction  was  adopted  with  provision  for 
occasional  lectures  to  seniors  upon  "local  law  and  practice  peculiar  to 
Mississippi." 

By  enactment  of  the  Legislature,  in  1857,  the  diploma  conferring  the 
degree  of  bachelor  of  law  was  made  sufficient  evidence  of  learning  in  the 
law  to  entitle  the  holder  to  a  license  to  practice  in  the  courts  of  the  State. 

Mr.  Stearns  conducted  the  department  with  marked  ability.  He  was 
a  northern  man  by  birth,  but  had,  .previous  to  his  election,  spent  many 
years  in  the  practice  of  his  profession  in  Mississippi.  He  discharged  his 
duties  with  efficiency,  and  continued  in  the  service  of  the  University  until 
1861  when  its  doors  were  closed  because  of  the  civil  war.  After  the  war, 
sad  to  relate,  Mr.  Stearns  died  by  his  own  hand. 

In  1860  the  Legislature,  by  amendment  of  the  charter  of  the  University, 
created  and  endowed  a  second  chair  of  law.  The  trustees  in  due  time 
elected  to  this  chair  the  Honorable  James  F.  Trotter,  of  Holly  Springs, 
who  had  adorned,  successively,  the  Circuit,  Chancery  and  Appellate  bench 
of  his  State. 

In  1861  all  the  departments  of  the  University  were  closed.  In  1867  the 
Department  of  Law  was  reorganized.  The  Hon.  Lucius  Q.  C.  Lamar, 
that  prince  of  teachers,  was  elected  to  the  chair  and  continued  to  perform 
its  duties  until  1870  when  he  resigned  to  enter  Congress.  The  Hon.  J. 
A.  P.  Campbell  was  chosen  as  Mr.  Lamar's  successor,  but  did  not  accept 
the  office.  Henry  Craft,  Esq.,  of  the  Memphis  Bar,  was  then  elected, 
but  he  does  not  seem  to  have  occupied  the  chair. 

Col.  Jordan  M.  Phipps,  a  distinguished  alumnus  of  the  University,  was 
elected  adjunct  professor,  and  taught  the  class  of  1870-71. 


Cv2  nyrVBRBITT  OF  MISSISSIPPI. 

Chancellor  Thomas  Walton,  also  a  distinguished  alumnus  of  the  insti- 
tution, was  made  professor  of  law  in  1S71  and  served  till  1874.  Dr.  Ed- 
ward Mayes,  another  distinguished  alumnus,  succeeded  Mr.  Walton  and, 
while  Chancellor  of  the  University,  conducted  the  department  of  law  until 
L892  when  he  resigned.  Albert  Hall  Whitfield,  now  Chief  Justice  of  the 
Supreme  Court  of  Mississippi,  followed  Mr.  Hayes  and  served  till  1894 
when  he  resigned  to  go  on  the  bench.  Governor  Garvin  D.  Shands  was 
then  called  to  the  place,  and  during  his  administration,  on  account  of  the 
increased  attendance  and  extended  scope  of  instruction,  it  became  nec~ 
essary  to  revive  the  second  chair  of  law,  which  had  been  suspended  in 
1861.  This  was  done  in  1897,  and  Thomas  H.  Somerville,  of  the  Winona 
Bar,  was  elected  to  this  chair.  The  office  of  dean  of  the  department  of 
law  was  created,  and  Governor  Shands  elected  thereto.  The  course  in 
Constitutional  Law  was  enlarged.  Private  International  Law,  Insurance 
and  Equity  Pleadings  and  other  topics  were  added  to  the  curriculum. 

In  1905  Governor  Shands  resigned  to  accept  the  chair  of  Common  Law 
in  Tulane  University;  thereupon  Mr.  Somerville  was  made  dean  of  the 
department  and  the  Hon.  Clarence  L.  Sivley  was  elected  to  the  vacant 
chair.  In  1906  Mr.  Sivley  resigned  the  place  to  accept  a  lucrative  office 
as  railway  attorney  in  the  city  of  Memphis.  To  the  vacancy  thus  created 
the  Hon.  J.  Elmore  Holmes,  of  the  Hernando  Bar,  was  elected.  Both 
Mr.  Sivley  and  Mr.  Holmes  were  honored  graduates  of  the  Law  Depart- 
ment. 

Grateful  recognition  of  the  faithful  service  of  distinguished  lecturers 
should  be  here  recorded.  For  many  years  the  Hon.  Jehu  A.  Orr,  of  Col- 
umbus, and  the  lamented  Horatio  F.  Simrall,  late  Chief  Justice  of  the 
Supreme  Court  of  Mississippi,  were  accustomed  to  visit  the  University 
each  session  and  devote  a  week  to  instruction  by  lectures  on  important 
topics  of  their  own  choosing.  The  Hon.  Robt.  A.  Hill,  late  U.  S.  District 
Judge,  long  maintained  the  habit  of  greeting  the  class  at  the  opening  of 
the  session,  and  during  the  year  usually  delivered  a  lecture  on  Federal 
Procedure.  Each  of  these  gentlemen  was  a  trustee  of  the  institution  for 
many  years.  The  first  named  still  survives  and  is  retained  as  a  member 
of  the  staff  of  lecturers. 

During  the  present  administration  the  course  of  study  has  been  ex- 
tended. Two  full  sessions  of  nine  months  each  are  now  required  for  grad- 
uation.    Plans  are  on  foot  for  material  improvements. 

It  would  be  pleasant  to  advert  to  the  attainments  of  the  graduates  of 
the  school  and  to  speak  of  their  usefulness  in  the  various  walks  of  life 
and  of  their  ability  and  efficiency  in  the  service  of  the  people,  but  the 
attempt  would  extend  this  paper  beyond  its  legitimate  limits.  The  roster 
of  graduates  and  students  published  in  this  volume  will  register  the  con- 
tribution of  the  law  department  to  the  interests  of  the  public  and  include 
the  names  of  many  who  are  high  in  authority,  State  and  federal.  It  would 
be  needless  and  cumbersome  to  reproduce  their  names  here.  All  the  in- 
cumbents of  the  Supreme  bench  are  alumni  of  this  school. 

Let  it  suffice  to  point  to  the  agency  of  the  Law  Department  in  the  cause 
of  legal  education.     As  shown  in  the  foregoing  sketch  Thomas  Walton,

Edward  Mayes,  Clarence  L.  Sivley  and  J.  Elmore  Holmes  have  all  served 
their  alma  mater  as  teachers,  and  the  Hon.  Lauch  McLaurin,  another 
distinguished  graduate,  is  professor  of  law  in  the  University  of  Texas. 


DEPARTMENT  OF  ENGINEERING. 

Courses  in  Engineering  were  first  offered  in  the  University  immedi- 
ately after  the  close  of  the  Civil  War.  In  1865  a  chair  of  Physics,  Astron- 
omy and  Civil  Engineering  was  organized  and  General  Alexander  P.  Stew- 
art took  charge  as  its  head.  He,  however,  retained  the  position  only  a 
few  months  and  General  Francis  A.  Shoup  succeeded  him.  Gen.  Shoup 
remained  at  the  head  of  the  chair  from  1865  to  1867.  In  1867  Physics  and 
Astronomy  were  combined  into  a  separate  chair,  with  Dr.  Landon  C. 
Garland  in  charge,  and  General  Shoup  retained  Civil  Enginereing  as  a 
separate  chair,  its  name,  however,  being  changed  to  Applied  Mathematics. 
He  resigned  in  1868  and  for  four  years  thereafter  the  Engineering  work 
was  discontinued,  save  Surveying,  which  was  given  in  connection  with 
Pure  Mathematics  by  General  Claudius  W.  Sears.  In  1872,  under  the  in- 
fluence of  General  Sears,  the  work  was  again  introduced  and  the  chair  of 
Mathematics  and  Civil  Engineering  was  instituted,  with  General  Sears  at 
its  head.  This  chair  was  continued  until  1875,  when  the  Civil  Engineer- 
ing was  again  abolished,  and  thereafter,  with  the  exception  of  some  work 
in  Plane  Surveying  given  by  General  Sears  in  connection  with  Pure  Math- 
ematics, no  further  attempt  was  made  to  offer  Engineering  courses  in  the 
University  until  the  fall  of  1900,  when  the  present  department  was  organ- 
ized. 

The  work  of  the  department  during  these  early  years  of  its  history 
included  courses  in  Mechanical  Drawing,  Surveying,  Descriptive  Geom- 
etry, Mechanics,  Hydraulics,  Materials  of  Engineering  and  short  de- 
scriptive courses  in  framed  structures,  masonry,  highway  construction 
and  similar  subjects,  all  this  latter  work  being  given  as  one  composite 
course  in  the  Senior  year.  It  is  both  interesting  and  instructive  to  note 
that,  even  in  these  early  years,  when  the  South  was  stricken  with  material 
poverty  because  of  the  war  and  when  there  were  available  little  of  funds 
to  purchase  necessary  equipment,  that  even  with  all  these  difficulties  the 
courses  offered  measured  well  up  to  the  standards  of  those  times.  That 
they  should  have  been  given  at  all  is  due  to  the  heroism  of  those  distin- 
guished men  who  were  in  control  and  who,  in  the  roles  of  teachers,  dis- 
played no  less  ability  than  they  had  exhibited  as  generals  in  the  Confed- 
erate Army.  But  in  spite  of  their  efforts  the  work  failed  for  lack  of  support 
and  for  lack  of  interest  in  it  upon  the  part  of  young  men.  During  all  these 
years,  though  many  students  took  one  or  more  of  the  courses  in  Engineer- 
ing, only  twenty  became  candidates  for  the  degree  of  Civil  Engineer  as 
offered  by  the  University,  and  of  these  twenty  only  two  graduated.  It 
was  too  soon  after  the  Civil  War  for  Southern  educational  ideas  to  change, 


(4  UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI. 

and  Civil  Engineering  at  that  date  in  the  South  was  not  regarded  as  a 
profession.  Hence,  few  young  men  of  talent  and  education  could  be  in- 
duced to  adopt  it.  Indeed  the  necessity  for  the  radical  change  in  her 
educational  methods  has  been  realized  by  the  South  only  after  a  lapse 
of  some  thirty  or  forty  years,  and  even  now  that  change  is  in  progress. 

In  June,  1000,  the  Board  of  Trustees  authorized  the  introduction  of 
Engineering  courses  in  connection  with  Pure  Mathematics,  and  during 
the  session  1900-'01  courses  in  Surveying  and  Drawing  were  given  by  the 
Professor  of  Mathematics,  Dr.  Alfred  Hume.  In  the  same  year  a  chair 
of  Electricity  and  Electrical  Engineering  was  established  and  Professor 
Douglass  S.  Anderson  put  in  charge.  The  equipment,  both  in  Electricity 
and  for  Surveying  and  Drawing,  was  very  meager  and  any  extensive  work 
was  impossible. 

In  June,  1901,  Professor  Anderson  resigned  and  Professor  Arthur  W. 
Smith  was  made  Professor  of  Electricity  and  Electrical  Engineering.  Pro- 
fessor Walter  H.  Drane  was  elected  assistant  in  Mathematics  and  Civil 
Engineering,  and,  in  addition  to  the  work  given  the  previous  year,  three 
other  courses  in  Civil  Engineering  were  offered — one  in  Analytical  Me- 
chanics, one  in  Descriptive  Geometry  and  one  in  Roofs  and  Bridges — the 
first  and  second  by  Dr.  Hume,  the  third  by  Prof.  Drane. 

In  1902  Professor  Smith  resigned,  the  chair  of  Electricity  and  Electrical 
Engineering  was  abolished  and  Electricity  was  combined  with  Physics 
and  put  in  charge  of  Dr.  John  W.  Johnson,  the  Professor  of  Physics.  Pro- 
fessor Drane  was  made  assistant  in  charge  of  Civil  Engineering,  the  work, 
however,  remaining  under  the  general  direction  of  the  professor  of  Pure 
Mathematics,  Dr.  Alfred  Hume.  No  additional  equipment  could  be  pur- 
chased, but  the  work  was  still  further  extended  by  the  introduction  of 
new  courses  and  the  attendance  continued  to  increase.  The  Legislature, 
in  the  winter  of  1903,  made  considerable  appropriations  for  equipment 
and  for  a  building,  the  latter  fund  being  used  to  put  additions  to  the  Ly- 
ceum Building,  several  rooms  of  which  were  allotted  to  the  use  of  Civil 
Engineering,  Electricity  and  Electrical  Engineering.  Accordingly,  in 
June  following  this  appropriation,  the  Board  of  Trustees  re-established 
the  chair  of  Electricity  and  Electrical  Engineering,  and  Professor  Eugene 
Campbell  was  put  in  charge  as  full  professor.  Professor  Walter  H.  Drane 
was  made  full  professor  of  Civil  Engineering,  which  was  also  made  a  chair 
separate  from  Pure  Mathematics.  Large  additions  were  made  to  the 
equipment  and  the  work  was  again  enlarged  and  extended  by  the  intro- 
duction of  new  courses.  This  at  once  had  its  effect  upon  the  growth  of 
the  work  for  the  attendance  immediately  increased,  the  total  enrollment 
being  43,  the  class  enrollment  being  over  100.  During  the  years  1903-'04, 
1904-'05,  1905-'06  the  work  in  Engineering  prospered  and  grew  in  magni- 
tude and  importance.  So  much  so  that  in  June,  1905,  Professor  Robert 
H.  McNeilley  was  elected  assistant  in  Civil  Engineering.  It  seemed  that 
nothing  was  needed  but  work  and  patience  to  make  the  department  sec- 
ond to  none  of  its  kind  in  the  South,  when  its  support  was  cut  off  by  lack 
of  appropriation  by  the  Legislature.  Curtailment  became  an  absolute 
necessity,  and  in  June,  1906,  the  chair  of  Electricity  and  Electrical  Engin- 


UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI.  65 

eering  was  again  abolished  and  the  work  restored  as  a  part  of  Physics, 
under  Dr.  John  W.  Johnson.  Professor  Robert  H.  McNeilley  resigned 
and  Professor  J.  H.  Dorroh  succeeded  him,  he,  however,  being  made 
assistant  professor  of  Civil  Engineering.  In  1907  all  the  work  of  Elec- 
tricity and  Electrical  Engineering  was  combined  into  one  professional 
department,  with  Professor  Walter  H.  Drane  in  charge  and  Professor 
J.  H.  Dorroh  as  assistant  professor  in  charge  of  Electricity  and  Electrical 
Engineering.  In  June,  1908,  the  chair  of  Municipal  and  Sanitary  Engin- 
eering was  created  and  Professor  J.  H.  Dorroh  put  at  its  head  as  full  pro- 
fessor, also  acting  professor  of  Electrical  Engineering.  Professor  Drane 
remained  as  the  head  of  the  department  and  professor  of  Civil 
Engineering.  In  that  same  year  the  chair  of  Geology  was  made  a  part 
of  the  Engineering  department  and  Professor  E.  N.  Lowe  put  in  charge. 

It  has  been  omitted  to  mention  that  early  in  this  latter  history  of  the 
department  a  School  of  Mines  and  Mining  Engineering  was  established 
and  courses  published  in  the  catalogue  for  several  years,  but  no  professor 
was  ever  appointed  and  practically  nothing  was  accomplished.  Accord- 
ingly, in  1906,  this  school  was  abolished  and  the  chair  of  Municipal  anp 
Sanitary  Engineering  established  in  its  place. 

As  at  present  organized  the  Engineering  Department  comprises  four 
schools,  viz.:  Civil  Engineering,  Electrical  Engineering,  Municipal  and 
Sanitary  Engineering  and  Geology.  Professor  Walter  H.  Drane  is  acting 
dean  of  the  department  and  professor  of  Civil  Engineering,  Professor  E. 
N.  Lowe  is  professor  of  Geology  and  Professor  J.  H.  Dorroh  is  professor 
of  Municipal  and  Sanitary  Engineering  and  acting  professor  of  Electrical 
Engineering.  While  the  department  has  never  recovered  from  the  cur- 
tailment of  its  support  there  are  signs  that  there  will  be  healthy  growth 
in  the  future  if  a  suitable  building  and  sufficient  equipment  can  be  ob- 
tained. The  attendance  is  on  the  increase  and  more  and  more  interest 
is  being  manifested  in  its  work  by  the  young  men. 

Some  idea  of  the  growth  of  the  department  since  1900  can  be  gained 
from  the  following  approximate  data:  In  1900,  15  students  were  enrolled, 
about  12  units  of  work  were  offered,  including  that  in  Electricity,  and  the 
value  of  the  equipment  was  about  $2,000,  including  the  electrical  equip- 
ment; only  one  professor  was  in  the  department  as  such. 

At  present  the  department  occupies  seven  rooms  in  the  Lyceum  build- 
ing and  one  in  the  new  Science  Hall;  its  equipment,  though  by  no  means 
adequate,  may  be  estimated  to  be  worth  $6,000;  there  are  50  units  of  work 
offered;  since  1900  the  number  enrolled  for  degrees  has  been  in  the  neigh- 
borhood of  200;  the  total  number  of  graduates  about  25;  total  number  of 
students  taking  one  or  more  courses  in  the  department  about  300,  and 
there  are  three  full  professors  in  the  department.

DEPARTMENT  OF  EDUCATION. 

The  history  of  the  School  of  Pedagogy  was  traced  in  the  last  historical 
catalogue  from  the  first  suggestion  of  Chancellor  Mayes  that  such  a  school 
be  established  with  Dr.  Deupree,  then  a  Professor  at  Mississippi  College, 
as  its  first  Professor,  to  the  incumbency  of  the  chair  by  that  honored 
Mississippi  teacher  and  veteran  soldier.  In  the  present  short  sketch  the 
history  of  the  department  as  a  separate  professional  division  really  be- 
gins. 

In  1S93  the  Chair  of  Pedagogy  was  established,  with  James  Under- 
wood Barnard  as  Professor.  He  served  three  years  and  returned  to  Mis- 
souri to  become  Principal  of  a  High  School  in  Kansas  City,  where  he 
remained  till  his  death  in  January,  1909. 

In  1896  J.  G.  Deupree  was  elected  to  the  Chair  of  Pedagogy  to  succeed 
Professor  Barnard,  and  held  the  same  till  1905,  when  he  was  transferred 
to  the  Chair  of  Greek.  The  annual  catalogues  show  progress  and  growth, 
and  in  1903  the  Department  of  Education,  with  J.  G.  Deupree  as  Dean,  was 
established.  At  that  time  the  School  of  Psychology,  previously  asso- 
ciated with  Philosophy  under  the  honored  Dr.  R.  M.  Leavell,  was  trans- 
ferred to  the  Department  of  Pedagogy,  and  Dr.  T.  P.  Bailey,  who  had 
served  the  Universities  of  California  and  Chicago,  was  made  Professor 
of  Psychology  and  Applied  Psychology.  Mr.  J.  W.  Bell,  who  had  attracted 
the  attention  of  the  Board  by  his  successful  work  as  Superintendent  of 
city  schools,  was  appointed  High  School  Visitor  and  Associate  Professor 
of  Pedagogy.  Professor  Bell  served  two  years  and  then  accepted  a  flat- 
tering call  to  the  professorship  of  Mathematics  at  the  Industrial  Insti- 
tute and  College,  at  that  time  presided  over  by  our  present  able  and  de- 
voted Chancellor,  Dr.  A.  A.  Kincannon.  In  1905  Mr.  Robert  Torrey,  the 
efficient  Superintendent  of  Schools  of  Yazoo  City,  succeeded  Professor 
Bell  as  School  Visitor  and  served  one  year.  The  office  was  then  discon- 
tinued until  the  present  year. 

In  1905  Dr.  Deupree  was  transferred  to  the  Department  of  Greek,  a 
branch  he  loved  and  had  taught  for  a  number  of  years.  Dr.  Bailey  was 
made  Dean  of  the  department  and  Professor  of  Psychology  and  Educa- 
tion. Miss  Eula  Deaton,  the  accomplished  and  beloved  Dean  of  Women, 
was  appointed  Lecturer  in  the  department  and  served  efficiently  until 
her  retirement  from  the  University.  In  1906  the  Department  of  Educa- 
tion was  temporarily  abolished,  because  it  was  supposed  that  a  shortage 
in  funds  necessitated  a  decrease  of  the  teaching  force.  But  four  weeks 
later,  acting  on  a  petition  from  the  State  Teachers'  Association  and  the 
students  of  the  University,  the  department  was  reinstated  by  unanimous 
vote  of  the  Board. 

In  1908  Chancellor  Kincannon  asked  the  Dean  of  the  Department  to 
undertake  the  arduous  but  important  task  of  working  up  the  high  school 
system  of  the  State  in  connection  with  the  co-operation  of  the  General 
Education  Board.     Dr.  Bailey  was  continued  as  Dean  and  took  the  title 


UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI.  67 

of  Professor  of  Psychology  and  Secondary  Education.  The  splendid 
spirit  and  cordial  co-operation  of  the  teachers  of  the  State  makes  it  pos- 
sible for  this  standardising  and  constructive  work  to  be  one  that  prom- 
ises great  things  for  the  high  schools  and  the  University.  At  this  time  a 
course  for  teachers  wishing  to  work  for  professional  license  and  to  equip 
themselves  for  greater  usefulness  was  instituted.  Mr.  Robert  Torrey, 
formerly  High  School  Visitor,  was  called  from  his  superintendency  at 
Jackson  to  take  charge  of  this  work,  with  the  title  of  Professor  of  Ped- 
agogy. 

Reference  to  the  current  catalogue  will  show  that  the  department  has 
developed  a  flourishing  teachers'  club  with  fifty  members;  has  secured 
the  co-operation  of  the  Oxford  Graded  School  in  the  training  work  of  the 
department;  has  greatly  developed  the  institute  conductors'  course 
under  the  direction  of  the  Dean  of  the  department,  and  is  striving  in  every 
legitimate  way  to  make  the  department  as  useful  as  possible  to  the  Uni- 
versity and  to  the  cause  of  education  in  the  State. 

The  State  institutions  and  the  denominational  and  private  colleges  are 
joining  the  high  schools  of  the  State  in  giving  hearty  co-operation  to  the 
work  of  the  department.  When  the  Legislature  is  kind  enough  to  help 
the  department  train  leaders  in  education  through  the  establishment  of 
scholarships,  the  department  will  be  in  a  position  to  render  its  full  service 
to  schools  in  the  upbuilding  of  Mississippi's  schools  so  admirably  begun 
by  Preston,  Kincannon,  Whitfield,  and  being  continued  by  our  zealous 
and  progressive  State  Superintendent,  J.  N.  Powers.  Many  whose  names 
we  do  not  mention  have  helped  in  this  noble  work,  and  the  Department 
of  Education  hopes  that  their  work  and  ours  will  soon  put  Mississippi 
where  she  belongs  naturally — among  the  leading  educational  States  of4the 
Union. 


MEDICAL  DEPARTMENT. 

It  is  interesting  to  know  that  as  early  as  the  year  1870-71  the  Board  of 
Trustees  passed  a  resolution  relative  to  establishing  a  medical  depart- 
ment in  the  University.  On  the  minutes  of  the  Board  will  be  found  a 
resolution  which  reads:  "This  professional  school  will  be  organized  and 
put  in  regular  operation  upon  the  plan  in  the  University  of  Virginia,  which 
has  proved  to  be  so  eminently  successful,  just  as  soon  as  the  resources  of 
the  institution  shall  have  increased  to  a  sufficient  amount  to  admit  it, 
and  hopes  are  entertained  by  the  friends  of  the  University  that  the  time 
will  not  be  delayed  much  longer  when  this  shall  be  realized."  This  state- 
ment is  included  in  the  catalogue  from  1870-79.  Doubtless  the  develop- 
ment of  this  important  work  was  confronted  by  so  many  difficulties  that 
the  head  of  the  institution  could  not  foretell  the  future  prosperity  of  the 
University  with  sufficient  accuracy  to  predict  the  time  when  the  action 
of  the  Board  pertaining  to  a  department  of  "Medicine  and  Surgery,"  as 
it  was  termed,  could  be  carried  into  effect  and  so  it  was  excluded  from 
the  catalogue  of  1880. 


68  UNIVERSITY  OF   MISSISSIPPI. 

It  seems  that  the  matter  was  held  in  abeyance  until  Dr.  R.  B.  Fulton, 
then  professor  of  physics  and  astronomy,  was  elected  to  the  chancellor- 
ship of  the  University.  After  making  several  attempts  with  varying 
degrees  of  success,  the  first  two  years  of  the  medical  course  were  organ- 
ized in  June,  1903. 

During  the  first  four  years  of  the  work  the  conditions  were  so  unfa- 
vorable that  results  were  accomplished  with  marked  difficulty.  The  quar- 
ters in  which  the  greater  part  of  the  course  was  being  given  consisted  of 
two  rooms  in  the  Lyecum,  the  dissecting  being  done  in  a  small  frame 
building  about  fifty  yards  to  the  north  of  the  Lyceum  building.  The  con- 
struction of  this  building  was  made  possible  at  the  time  by  a  gift  from 
Hon.  Harry  Howard,  then  an  honored  member  of  the  Board  of  Trustees. 
The  faculty  had  to  solve  many  troublesome  problems  and  among  them 
was  the  securing  of  cadavers.  This  was  done  with  some  degree  of  incon- 
venience until  the  meeting  of  the  Legislature  January  1,  1905.  Realizing 
the  necessity  of  teaching  this  important  branch  in  a  satisfactory  man- 
ner, it  was  deemed  advisable  to  place  a  bill  before  the  Legislature  asking 
that  all  unclaimed  bodies  of  the  State  Charity  Hospitals  be  turned  over, 
under  the  supervision  of  the  State  Board  of  Health,  to  the  medical  de- 
partment of  the  University.  The  bill  on  first  presentation  passed  tho 
Senate,  but,  owing  to  the  agitation  of  a  certain  feature  of  it,  the  motion 
was  entered  for  a  reconsideration  and  after  a  heated  debate  the  measure 
was  tabled  and  was  not  recovered  during  this  session  of  the  Legislature. 
Without  any  particular  reason  the  medical  department  of  the  University 
was  forced  to  go  through  another  period  of  hardship  and  labor.  The  bill 
was  again  introduced  at  the  next  meeting  of  the  Legislature  and,  by  sub- 
jecting it  to  severe  analysis  previous  to  its  discussion  by  the  committee, 
it  was  recommended  for  passage  and  was  made  a  law  without  any  mate- 
rial opposition. 

The  medical  department  has  now  quite  commodious  quarters  in 
Science  Hall,  erected  during  the  session  of  1906-07. 

Owing  to  the  prevailing  idea  that  it  was  necsesary  to  have  a  large  city 
in  order  to  teach  medicine  there  were  many  physicians  in  the  State  who 
were  inclined  to  oppose  the  organization  of  a  medical  school  in  Missis- 
sippi, but  in  view  of  the  radical  changes  which  have  been  inaugurated  in 
the  best  medical  colleges  of  America  those  who  were  interested  in  the 
making  of  a  greater  University  of  Missisippi,  on  carefully  studying  the 
question  became  convinced  that  the  undertaking  was  in  thorough  accord 
with  the  modern  methods  of  instruction  in  medicine.  So  the  first  two 
years  were  given  with  the  understanding  that  the  last  two  years  should 
be  added  as  soon  as  the  University  could  come  into  possession  of  a  hos- 
ital  in  which  the  clinical  branches  would  be  properly  taught. 

In  March,  1908,  Chancellor  Andrew  A.  Kincannon  was  approached  by 
Dr.  B.  B.  Martin  and  Dr.  E.  F.  Howard  relative  to  accepting  the  State 
Charity  Hospital  located  at  Vicksburg  to  be  used  for  the  purpose  of  estab- 
lishing the  last  two  years  of  medicine  as  a  part  of  the  Medical  Depart- 
ment of  the  University  of  Mississippi.  Those  gentlemen  expressed  the 
opinion  that  the  Board  of  Aldermen  and  the  Board  of  Supervisors  of  War- 


UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI.  69 

ren  County  were  disposed  to  turn  over  the  hospital  to  the  University  for 
medical  teaching,  and  if  the  Chancellor  cared  to  consider  the  proposition 
the  necessary  papers  would  be  drawn  up  and  matters  made  in  every  way 
satisfactory  to  the  authorities  of  the  University.  Chancellor  Kincannon, 
realizing  the  need  of  medical  education  in  the  State,  called  a  meeting  of 
the  Board  of  Trustees  in  Jackson,  March  28,  1908,  for  the  purpose  of  con- 
sidering the  acceptance  of  the  State  Charity  Hospital  as  part  of  the  Uni- 
versity property  and  to  be  used  in  connection  with  the  medical  depart- 
ment. The  Board  appointed  at  this  meeting  a  committee  consisting  of 
the  Hon.  W.  E.  Baskin,  Hon.  J.  T.  Senter  and  Hon.  J.  L.  Taylor,  to  make 
a  trip  to  Vicksburg  to  investigate  the  hospital  relative  to  accepting  it  as 
property  of  the  University  to  be  used  in  the  development  of  the  medical 
department. 

At  the  next  meeting  of  the  Board  the  hospital  was  accepted.  It  was 
the  intention  at  this  time  to  begin  the  work  of  the  last  two  years  of  the 
course  in  September,  1908,  but  owing  to  the  limited  time  intervening 
between  the  acceptance  of  the  hospital  and  the  opening  of  the  following 
session,  it  was  thought  best  to  defer  the  election  of  the  Faculty  for 
the  course  of  the  last  two  years  and  the  making  of  other  arrangements  at 
Vicksburg  until  the  succeeding  year. 

The  first  faculty  of  the  Department  of  Medicine  consisted  of  the  fol- 
lowing professors   and  lecturers: 

R.  B.  Fulton,  M.A.,  LL.D.,  Chancellor  of  the  University. 

R.  W.  Jones,  M.A.,  LL.D.,  Professor  of  General  and  Medical  Chemis- 
try. 

W.  S.  Leathers,  M.D.,  Professor  of  Biology  and  Physiology. 

James  B.  Bullitt,  M.A.,  M.D.,  Professor  of  Anatomy  and  Pathology. 

P.  W.  Rowland,  M.D.,  Acting  Professor  of  Materia  Medica. 

J.  W.  Johnson,  M.A.,  Ph.D.,  Professor  of  Physics. 

Eugene  Campbell,  B.P.,  M.A.,  Professor  of  Electricity. 

Thomas  H.  Somerville,  LL.D.,  Professor  of  Medical  Jurisprudence. 

Harry  R.  Fulton,  B.A.,  Assistant  in  Biology  and  Physiology. 

Woodson  A.  Stevens,  B.S.,  Assistant  in  Chemistry. 

J.  M.  Buchanan,  M.D.,  Lecturer  on  Physiology  of  Nervous  System. 

J.  A.  Crisler,  M.D.,  Lecturer  on  Minor  Surgery. 

H.  A.  Gant,  M.D.,  Lecturer  on  Hygiene. 

J.  F.  Hunter,  M.D.,  Lecturer  on  Physiology. 

H.  L.  Sutherland,  M.D.,  Lecturer  on  Pathology. 

A.  A.  Young,  Lecturer  on  Pathology  and  Bacteria.

DEPARTMENT  OF  PHARMACY. 

Realizing  the  need  of  a  college  of  Pharmacy  in  the  State,  on  July  1, 
1908,  the  University  of  Mississippi  added  such  a  department  coordinate 
with  those  already  established.  Accordingly,  on  September  24,  1908,  the 
doors  of  the  department  of  Pharmacy  were  opened  for  the  reception  of 
students.    The  first  faculty  was  constituted  as  follows: 

Andrew  A.  Kincannon,  LL.D.,  Chancellor. 

Thomas  H.  Somerville,  LL.B.,  LL.D.,  Professor  of  Medical  Jurispru- 
dence. 

Waller  S.  Leathers,  M.D.,  Professor  of  Physiology  and  Botany. 

Peter  W.  Rowland,  M.D.,  Professor  of  Materia  Medica. 

Anthony  M.  Muckenfuss,  Ph.D.,  Professor  of  Chemistry. 

Henry  Minor  Faser,  Professor  of  Practical  and  Theoretical  Pharmacy. 

George  Lucas  Paddison,  Assistant  in  Chemistry. 

Fifteen  students  applied  for  entrance  with  the  opening  of  the  session, 
and  the  department  has  very  flattering  prospects  of  something  like  thirty- 
five  students  in  both  classes  with  the  opening  of  the  second  year.  When 
we  consider  the  fact  that  quite  a  number  of  the  most  reputable  colleges 
of  Pharmacy  opened  their  doors  with  a  smaller  number  than  we  have  en- 
rolled, and  when  we  consider  further  that  the  department  was  established 
only  two  months  before  the  opening  of  the  session,  we  have  reason  for 
being  highly  satisfied  with  the  enrollment  we  have  made. 

The  aim  of  this  department  is  to  provide  instruction  for  students  who 
desire  to  acquire  the  special  training  necessary  for  the  successful  practice 
of  Pharmacy.  The  importance  both  to  the  pharmacist  and  to  the  public 
of  a  thorough,  scientific  training  in  Pharmacy,  is  now  fully  recognized. 
The  course  extends  throughout  two  collegiate  sessions,  nine  months  each. 
Every  student  taking  the  course  is  given  eight  hundred  and  sixty-four 
hours  of  lectures  and  recitations  and  nine  hundred  and  thirty-six  hours 
of  laboratory  work.  The  department  is  admirably  equipped  for  doing 
excellent  work.  The  three  laboratories  are  provided  with  all  the  neces- 
sary fixtures  and  conveniences  for  all  general  purposes,  and  contain  fully 
equipped  stands  with  reagents;  and,  for  each  student,  a  closet  with  ap- 
paratus under  his  own  lock  and  key. 

The  chemical  laboratory  is  located  in  the  Lyceum  building.  During 
the  past  year  the  University  has  expended  $4,500  in  repairing  and  increas- 
ing its  equipment.  The  pharmaceutical  laboratory  is  located  on  the  first 
floor,  west  end  of  the  new  Science  Hall.  It  is  one  of  the  finest  and  best 
equipped  rooms  of  its  kind  to  be  found  anywhere.  It  is  spacious,  airy, 
well  lighted  and  well  ventilated,  and  has  individual  working  tables  and 
lockers  for  each  student.  Gas  and  water  are  supplied  at  each  stand  and 
large  washing  sinks  are  amply  provided  to  meet  every  requirement.  Brief- 
ly put,  we  have  every  convenience  needed  to  carry  out  the  purpose  of  this 
department   successfully.    The   practical   Materia   Medica   and  Botany 


UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI.  71 

laboratory  is  located  on  the  second  floor  of  the  Science  Hall.  This  is  a 
large  and  convenient  room.  The  desks  are  designed  for  microscopical 
work,  and  appropriate  illumination  is  supplied  for  each  pupil.  The  ample 
laboratory  equipment  consists  of  both  simple  and  compound  microscopes 
of  the  most  approved  patterns,  all  the  principal  microscopical  accessories, 
modern  reagents,  mounting  material,  etc. 

The  lecture  halls  are  large  and  spacious;  each  branch  of  the  department 
has  its  own  lecture  room,  and  each  is  provided  with  comfortable  chairs 
to  accommodate  one  hundred  students.  The  lecture  rooms  and  labora- 
tories are  lighted  by  electricity  and  heated  by  steam;  they  have  been 
carefully  arranged  so  as  to  give  the  greatest  comfort  to  the  student  and 
the  best  conveniences  to  the  teachers.  Each  subject  of  the  department 
is  taught  by  a  specialist  in  his  particular  branch.  The  department  has 
established  high  and  thorough  standards  and  confidently  expects  to  con- 
tribute service  to  the  profession  through  the  increasing  number  of  grad- 
uates that  it  shall  send  out  from  year  to  year. 


PRESIDENTS  AND  CHANCELLORS. 

GEORGE    FREDERICK    HOLMES,    LL.D. 

Born  in  Guiana,  South  America,  in  1820,  a  graduate  of  Durham  Uni- 
versity, in  England,  George  Frederick  Holmes  came  to  the  United  States 
in  1838.  After  teaching  school  for  several  years  in  Virginia,  Georgia  and 
South  Carolina,  and,  though  unnaturalized,  having  been  admitted  to  the 
bar  in  South  Carolina  by  special  act  of  the  Legislature,  he  was  elected, 
in  1847,  Professor  of  History,  Political  Economy  and  International  Law 
in  William  and  Mary  College,  Virginia.  July  12,  1848,  at  the  age  of  28, 
he  was  chosen  the  first  President  of  the  University  of  Mississippi.  The 
arduous  duties  of  his  office,  made  unusually  trying  by  the  turbulent  spirit 
of  the  student  body,  proved  too  great  a  strain  upon  his  physical  strength, 
and  in  April,  1849,  President  Holmes  returned  to  Virginia  to  regain  his 
health  and  for  the  benefit  also  of  that  of  some  member  of  his  family.  Com- 
mencement came  and  he  had  not  returned  or  been  heard  from,  though  it 
is  said  that  he  had  written  and  was  on  the  eve  of  starting  southward. 
In  his  absence  the  Board  of  Trustees  unanimously  declared  his  office  va- 
cant, and  elected  Augustus  B.  Longstreet,  of  Georgia,  his  successor.  Dr. 
Holmes  became  Professor  of  History  and  Literature  in  the  University 
of  Virginia  in  1857  and  for  forty  years  was  eminent  in  his  service  to  that 
great  institution,  noted  for  his  legal  attainments  as  well  as  for  his  re- 
searches in  history  and  literature.  He  was  the  author  of  a  number  of  text- 
books for  Southern  schools,  and  by  the  series  of  readers  which  bear  his 
name  is  now  perhaps  most  widely  known.  His  death  occurred  November 
4,  1897. 

AUGUSTA    BALDWIN    LONGSTREET,    LLD.,    D.D. 

Under  conditions  peculiarly  unfavorable,  the  second  President  of  the 
University  entered  upon  the  discharge  of  his  difficult  and  delicate  respon- 


72  /  \  / 1  BRBITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI. 

sibilities.  But  the  Trustees  had  evidently  chosen  wisely.  Disorder  di- 
minished, attendance  increased  and  the  reputation  of  the  University  was 
improved  and  extended.  "Judge  Longstreet."  as  he  was  best  known,  was 
born  in  Augusta,  Georgia,  September  22,  1790.  He  was  prepared  for  col- 
lege by  Dr.  Moses  Waddel  at  the  once  famous  "Wellington  Academy"  in 
South  Carolina.  In  1S13  he  graduated  at  Yale  College,  and  then  studied 
law  at  Litchfield,  Conn.  Returning  to  Georgia  he  rapidly  rose  to  dis- 
tinction as  a  lawyer  and  orator.  He  was  appointed  judge  but  declined 
the  office,  and  was  entering  upon  a  canvass  for  Congressional  honors, 
with  confidence  of  election,  when  an  irresistible  call  to  preach  caused  him 
to  give  up  his  prospects  of  wealth  and  political  preferment  and  enter  the 
humbler  but,  as  he  testifies,  happier  life  of  a  Methodist  itinerant.  Ere 
long  the  circuit-rider  was  transformed  into  the  college  president,  and  for 
thirteen  years  Emory  College,  Georgia,  felt  his  gently,  firmly,  guiding 
hand,  and  entered  fully  on  its  career  of  usefulness  and  honor.  He  resigned 
the  presidency  of  Emory  College  in  1848  and  shortly  after  was  elected 
President  of  Centenary  College,  Louisiana.  In  1849  he  was  unanimously 
chosen  President  of  the  University  of  Mississippi,  having  failed  of  the 
election  the  year  before  by  only  one  vote.  As  has  been  stated,  under  his 
wise  administration  discipline  was  enforced  and  rapid  progress  was 
achieved.  Owing  chiefly,  it  seems,  to  dissensions  in  the  faculty,  and  to 
some  extent  among  the  trustees,  President  Longstreet,  in  July,  1856, 
tendered  his  resignation.  It  was  accepted  with  regret  and  under  protest 
by  the  Board  of  Trustees.  From  1857  to  1859  he  was  President  of  the 
University  of  South  Carolina.  After  the  war,  which  suspended  that 
University  and  others  in  the  South,  he  returned  to  Oxford,  Miss.,  where, 
in  his  eightieth  year,  July  9,  1870,  he  died  in  the  midst  of  his  family  and 
friends.  His  remains  now  rest  under  a  handsome  monument  near  the 
entrance  to  the  Oxford  Cemetery.  As  a  preacher  he  was  earnest,  deeply 
spiritual  and  persuasive,  though  it  is  said  he  never  attempted  eloquence 
in  the  pulpit.  His  political  and  educational  writings  were  sound  and 
forcible.  As  the  author  of  "Georgia  Scenes."  humorous  sketches  of  early 
nineteenth  century  life  in  Georgia,  autobiographical  in  part,  "Judge 
Longstreet"  holds  a  secure  place  in  Southern  literature.  It  may  be  added 
that  he  is  said  to  have  deprecated  the  work  in  his  latter  days,  and  even 
sought  to  suppress  it.  He  as  President,  his  son-in-law,  L.  Q.  C.  Lamar, 
as  Professor,  and  Edward  Mayes,  son-in-law  of  Lamar,  as  Chancellor, 
have  largely  shaped  the  destiny  of  this  University. 

FREDERICK    AUGUSTUS    PORTER    BARNARD,     S.T.D.,    LL.D.,    L.H.D.,    D.C.S. 

This  distinguished  mathematician,  physicist  and  educator,  third  Pres- 
ident and  first  Chancellor  of  the  University,  was  born  in  Sheffield,  Mass., 
May  5,  1809.  He  graduated  from  Yale  in  1828,  and  a  few  years  later,  for 
the  improvement  of  his  health,  sought  educational  work  in  the  South. 
From  1833  to  1848  he  was  Professor  of  Mathematics  and  Natural  Phil- 
osophy in  the  University  of  Alabama,  and  from  1848  to  1854  of  Chemistry 
and  Natural  Philosophy  in  that  institution.  As  the  successor  of  Dr.  A.  T. 
Bledsoe,  he  became  Professor  of  Mathematics,  Natural  Philosophy  and 


UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI.  73 

Civil  Engineering  in  the  University  of  Mississippi  in  1854.  That  year,  a 
Oxford,  he  was  ordained  a  priest  of  the  Episcopal  Church  by  Bishop 
Greene.  Succeeding  President  Longstreet  in  1856  he  at  once  addressed 
himself  earnestly  to  the  task  of  broadening  the  curriculum  and  equipping 
more  completely  the  scientific  departments.  His  published  "Letter  to 
the  Trustees"  and  his  address  before  the  Legislature  made  a  deep  impres- 
sion in  favor  of  higher  education  and  secured  for  the  University  a  liberal 
appropriation.  By  this  means  the  Observatory  Building  was  erected, 
apparatus  for  it  and  the  chemical  laboratory  provided,  and  the  valuable 
collections  in  the  biological  museums  purchased.  A  very  large  tele- 
scope was  ordered,  but  never  received  on  account  of  the  outbreak  of  war. 
In  1858  Dr.  Barnard's  title  was  changed  from  that  of  President  to  Chan- 
cellor. When  the  doors  of  the  University  were  closed  in  1861  Chancellor 
Barnard  returned  to  the  North,  and  in  1863-64  was  connected  with  the 
U.  S.  Coast  Survey  in  Washington.  Through  his  influence,  in  part,  the 
buildings  and  other  property  of  the  University  were  not  destroyed  by  the 
Federal  Army.  He  was  chosen  President  of  Columbia  College,  N.  Y.,  in 
1864,  and  with  that  institution  his  name  and  fame  are  inseparably  associ- 
ated. He  found  it  in  1864  a  second  or  third  rate  college  and  left  it  at  his 
death,  in  1889,  one  of  the  leading  institutions  of  learning  in  America. 
Barnard  College,  the  annex  for  women  to  Columbia  University,  appro- 
priately bears  his  name  for  he  was  always  a  warm  advocate  of  the  higher 
education  of  women.  In  recognition  of  his  valuable  services  to  the  cause 
of  science  and  education,  degrees  and  honors  were  showered  upon  him 
and  high  trusts  were  committed  to  him.  In  1860  he  was  a  member  of  the 
Labrador  Eclipse  Expedition,  sent  out  by  the  Coast  Survey.  The  same 
year  he  was  elected  President  of  the  American  Association  for  the  Ad- 
vancement of  Science.  He  was  one  of  the  United  States  Commissioners 
to  the  Paris  Exposition  in  1867.  His  publications  were  chiefly  scientific 
and  educational.  Shortly  after  his  death  in  New  York,  April  27,  1889, 
in  Harper's  Weekly  there  appeared  a  noble  tribute,  from  which  this  as 
the  central  thought  is  taken:  "The  death  of  Dr.  Barnard  deprives  Ameri- 
can Science  of  one  of  its  foremost  representatives;  Columbia  College  of 
the  ablest  and  most  successful  in  its  line  of  presidents." 

JOHN    NEWTON    WADDEL,    D.D.,    LL.D. 

The  son  of  the  Rev.  Moses  Waddel,  D.D.,  founder  of  "Willington 
Academy,"  and  afterward  President  of  the  University  of  Georgia,  Chan- 
cellor J.  N.  Waddel  was  born  at  Willington,  S.  C,  April  2,  1812.  He  at- 
tended first  his  father's  school  and  then  the  University  of  Georgia,  from 
which  he  was  graduated  in  1829  with  distinction.  For  a  year  or  two  he 
taught  in  the  "Willington  Academy"  and  then  turned  to  farming.  In 
1837  he  moved  with  his  small  family  to  Greene  County,  Alabama,  and  in 
1840  he  settled  in  Jasper  County,  Mississippi.  The  year  following  he 
entered  the  ministry  of  the  Presbyterian  Church,  and  soon  thereafter 
established  "Montrose  Academy,"  which  in  a  few  years  became  the  edu- 
cational center  of  Southeast  Mississippi.  As  one  of  the  charter  members 
of  the  Board  of  Trustees  of  the  University,  Dr.  Waddel  rode  horseback 


74  UNI\  ER8ITY  OF   MISSISSIPPI. 

from  Jasper  County  to  Oxford,  over  two  hundred  miles,  in  April,  1847,  to 
attend  a  meeting  of  the  Board.  He  was  appointed  Chairman  of  the  com- 
mittee to  arrange  a  course  of  study,  and  his  report  was,  at  the  next  meet- 
ing of  the  trustees,  adopted,  in  spite  of  a  vigorous  effort  by  two  of  them 
to  strike  "Evidences  of  Christianity"  from  the  course.  Having  resigned 
from  the  Board  of  Trustees  in  January,  1848,  the  July  following  Dr.  Wad- 
del  was  elected  Professor  of  Ancient  Languages.  Urged  by  officials  in 
his  church,  in  1S57  he  reluctantly  resigned  his  chair  in  the  University  to 
accept  the  Professorship  of  Ancient  Languages  in  the  La  Grange,  Tenn., 
Presbyterian  Synodical  College.  When  the  University  was  reorganized 
in  1S65,  Dr.  Waddel  was  called  to  the  Chancellorship.  In  1869  he  made 
a  tour  of  inspection  of  the  leading  colleges,  North  and  South,  with  a  view 
to  the  reorganization  of  the  curriculum  of  the  University  which  then  led 
only  to  the  B.  A.  degree  in  the  academic  department.  The  curriculum 
of  the  University  of  Michigan,  with  modifications,  was,  on  his  recommen- 
dation, adopted  in  1870,  and  in  its  main  features  is  still  in  force.  The 
days  of  "reconstruction"  came  and  the  University  was  for  several  years 
in  great  straits.  Chancellor  Waddel's  "Open  Letter"  in  September,  1870, 
in  which  he  stated  that  he  and  his  colleagues  would  resign  before  they 
would  matriculate  negro  students,  combined  with  Governor  Alcorn's 
support  and  the  establishment  of  Alcorn  A.  and  M.  College  that  year, 
"saved  the  University."  At  the  commencement  of  1873,  the  twenty-fifth 
anniversary  of  the  University  was  celebrated  with  appropriate  exercises. 
The  Board  of  Trustees  published  Chancellor  Waddel's  "Historical  Ad- 
dress" in  pamphlet  form,  and  requested  him  to  write  a  "History  of  the 
University.  When,  in  June,  1874,  he  tendered  his  resignation,  the  Board 
for  one  month  declined  to  accept  it,  but  on  his  refusal  then  to  withdraw 
it  they  elected  General  Alexander  P.  Stewart  as  his  successor.  As  Sec- 
retary of  Education  for  the  Southern  Presbyterian  Church  from  1874  to 
1879  and  as  Chancellor  of  the  Southwestern  Presbyterian  University  at 
Clarksville,  Tenn.,  from  1879  to  1888  Dr.  Waddel's  latter  years  were  full 
of  honor  and  of  blessing  to  mankind.  He  died  at  Birmingham,  Alabama, 
January  9, 1895,  having  given  fifty  years  of  his  life  to  the  cause  of  Southern 
education,  and  twenty-two  of  the  best  of  these  years  to  the  University 
of  Mississippi  as  trustee,  professor  and  chancellor. 

GENERAL  ALEXANDER  P.   STEWAKT,   IX.D.,  F.E.H.S. 

General  Stewart  was  born  at  Rogersville,  Tenn.,  October  2,  1821.  He 
graduated  at  the  U.  S.  Military  Academy  in  1842,  and  from  1843  to  1845 
was  Assistant  Professor  of  Mathematics  in  that  institution.  From  1845 
to  1869  he  was  Professor  of  Mathematics  and  Natural  Philosophy  in  Cum- 
berland and  Nashville  Universities.  Commissioned  Brigadier  General 
C.  S.  A.  in  1861,  he  was  in  command  of  the  Army  of  Tennessee  at  the  close 
of  the  war.  In  1866  he  was  offered  the  chair  of  Physics,  Astronomy  and 
Civil  Engineering  in  the  University  of  Mississippi,  but  declined  it.  He 
succeeded  Dr.  Waddel  as  Chancellor  of  the  University  in  1874  and  resigned 
in  1886,  the  longest  term  any  President  or  Chancellor  had  then  served. 
General  Stewart  was  the  Southern  member  of  the  Chickamauga  and  Chat-

tanooga  National  Park  Commission  from  1890  until  his  death.  Before 
the  Legislature  of  1902  "he  made  an  eloquent  plea  for  an  appropriation 
for  suitable  memorials  to  Mississippi  heroes  slain  on  those  bloody  battle 
fields.  General  Stewart  assumed  the  Chancellorship  at  a  trying  period. 
The  "reconstruction"  ordeal  was  not  yet  passed,  attendance  on  the  Uni- 
versity was  decreasing,  and  its  future  was  not  promising.  The  Law  De- 
partment had  been  suspended.  In  1877  that  department  was  re-estab- 
lished and  tuition  in  the  Academic  Department  was  abolished.  As  a 
result  of  these  measures  the  enrollment  in  1877-78  was  the  highest  up  to 
that  time  in  the  history  of  the  University,  the  total  being  471,  including 
259  in  the  Preparatory  Department.  The  admission  of  women  in  1882  is 
another  important  event  in  General  Stewart's  administration.  Judge  A. 
M.  Clayton  and  Hon.  H.  M.  Sullivan  appear  to  have  been  the  members 
of  the  Board  of  Trustees  who  proposed  and  most  earnestly  advocated 
this  policy.  In  the  management  of  the  finances  of  the  University  Gen- 
eral Stewart  was  remarkably  systematic  and  judicious.  Military  in  his 
bearing,  the  impersonation  of  dignity,  he  was  no  less  affable  and  sympa- 
thetic, deeply  concerned  for  the  temporal  and  spiritual  welfare  of  the 
students,  collectively  and  individually.  This  concern  was  manifested  in 
earnest,  private  conferences,  as  well  as  in  his  chapel  talks  and  baccalau- 
reate addresses.  The  writer  remembers  on  his  graduating  day  to  have 
heard  Judge  H.  H.  Chalmers  say  to  another  member  of  the  Board  of 
Trustees,  after  Chancellor  Stewart  had  spoken  his  parting  words  to  the 
literary  graduates  and  then  to  the  law  graduates  in  lines  of  thought  very 
different  and  yet  equally  excellent,  "There  is  not  another  man  in  the  State 
who  could  make  in  succession  two  addresses  so  similar  and  yet  so  differ- 
ent, and  both  of  such  high  order."  He  died  at  Biloxi,  Mississippi,  Au- 
gust 30,  1908,  and  was  buried  in  Bellefontaine  Cemetery,  St.  Louis. 

EDWARD    MAYES,    IX.D.,   F.S.C. 

The  first  chief  executive  of  the  University  chosen  from  its  alumni,  and 
the  only  native  of  the  State  as  yet  thus  honored,  (the  present  Chancellor 
excepted),  is  Hon.  Edward  Mayes,  who  was  born  in  Hinds  County,  Miss., 
December  15,  1846.  He  attended  Bethany  College,  Virginia,  in  1860-61, 
served  in  the  Confederate  Army  in  1864-65,  graduated  from  the  literary 
department  of  the  University  of  Mississippi  in  1868  and  from  the  law 
department  in  1869,  was  Professor  of  Law  in  the  University  from  1877 
to  1892,  Chairman  of  the  Faculty  1886-89,  Chancellor  of  the  University 
1889-92.  Among  the  significant  events  and  improvements  during  the 
administration  of  Chancellor  Mayes  mention  should  be  made  of  the 
following:  1.  His  great  controversy  with  Senator  George  on  the  Endow- 
ment Act  of  1880,  by  which  the  State  recognized  its  indebtedness  to 
the  University  and  provided  for  the  appropriation  to  it  of  the  annual 
interest  upon  this  debt.  That  the  settlement  was  unshaken  shows  how 
masterly  was  Chancellor  Mayes'  presentation  of  the  University  side 
of  the  question.  2.  Erection  of  the  Library  Building,  the  addition  of 
several  thousand  dollars'  worth  of  books  and  the  reclassification  of  the 
entire    library.     3.    Renovation    of    the    dormitories    and    professors'

residences.  4.  Reorganization  of  the  curriculum  in  1889,  making  the 
courses  for  the  B.A.,  B.S.  and  B.P.  degrees  more  distinctive.  5.  Laying 
of  the  brick  walks  on  the  campus  and  the  purchase  of  the  large  new 
telescope.  6.  The  tour  of  the  State  in  the  interest  of  the  University 
made  by  Chancellor  Mayes,  and  his  Chairmanship  of  the  Committee  on 
Bill  of  Rights  in  the  Constitutional  Convention  in  1890  also  deserve  men- 
tion among  the  important  events  of  his  administration.  As  an  author 
Dr.  Mayes  is  entitled  to  additional  distinction.  Without  enumerating 
his  legal  publications,  it  will  be  sufficient  to  refer  to  his  valuable  "His- 
tory of  Education  in  Mississippi"  and  to  his  admirable  "Life,  Times  and 
Speeches  of  L.  Q.  C.  Lamar."  That  he  was  a  delegate  to  the  Methodist 
Ecumenical  Conferences  of  1891  and  1901  indicates  his  church  relation- 
ship and  the  esteem  and  confidence  entertained  toward  him  by  his  church. 
Since  his  resignation  of  the  Chancellorship,  Mr.  Mayes  has  been  the  attor- 
ney of  the  Illinois  Central  Railroad  before  the  Supreme  Courts.  From 
1S95  to  1900  he  was  Professor  of  Law  in  Millsaps  Methodist  College,  Jack- 
son, Miss.  Still  in  the  vigor  of  manhood,  with  a  national  reputation  as 
a  lawyer,  Ex-Chancellor  Mayes,  for  character,  attainments  and  services, 
ranks  among  the  most  eminent  of  the  sons  of  Mississippi. 

ROBERT    BURWFXL    FULTON,    A.M.,    LL.D. 

Dr.  R.  B.  Fulton  was  born  in  Sumter  County,  Alabama,  in  April,  1849. 
His  father  was  a  successful  planter,  who  believed  in  giving  his  sons  the 
best  educational  opportunities.  Dr.  Fulton  was  taught  at  home  until  in 
his  thirteenth  year  he  entered  an  academy  at  Pleasant  Ridge,  Greene 
County,  Alabama,  where  he  studied  three  years  until  the  spring  of  1865. 
In  1865-66  he  studied  in  the  private  school  of  Rev.  C.  M.  Hutton  and  in 
the  fall  of  1866  entered  the  Sophomore  class  in  the  University  of  Missis- 
sippi. In  1869  he  graduated  with  the  highest  rank  and  first  honors  in  an 
unusually  strong  class  of  twenty-one  men. 

After  an  experience  of  a  session  and  a  half  in  teaching  in  high  schools 
in  Alabama  and  in  New  Orleans,  he  was  offered  the  place  of  Assistant 
Professor  of  Physics  and  Astronomy  in  the  University,  and  entered  upon 
the  duties  of  this  position  March  5,  1871. 

He  served  the  University  of  Mississippi  continuously  from  that  date 
to  the  time  of  his  resignation  in  September,  1906,  giving  the  longest  period 
of  service  of  any  man  ever  connected  with  the  Institution.  That  his 
service  during  these  years  was  uniformly  successful  is  shown  by  the  fact 
that  it  was  rendered  under  various  administrations  and  under  varying 
conditions,  and  that  it  led  to  continuous  promotion.  A  former  professor 
in  the  University  expressed  what  is  generally  known  of  Chancellor  Fulton 
when  he  wrote  that  "with  a  long  term  of  service  ranging  from  tutorship 
to  chancellorship,  no  man  knows  the  institution  so  thoroughly  as  he,  or 
has  labored  longer  or  more  successfully  for  its  upbuilding." 

Of  the  more  important  events  and  lines  of  progress  that  characterized 
his  administration  the  following  may  be  cited:  (1)  The  abolishing  of 
preparatory  classes  in  1892;  (2)  the  inauguration  in  1893  of  summer  terms 
that  drew  altogether  over  2,000  individual  teachers  to  the  University;    (3)

the  securing  from  Congress,  by  his  own  initiative  and  efforts,  of  a 
grant  of  23,040  acres  of  land  for  the  University  in  1894,  which  added  $10,- 
000  to  the  annual  revenues  of  the  University  and  which  opened  the  way 
to  other  grants  to  the  other  colleges  of  the  State,  which  grants  put  over 
$600,000  into  the  State  Treasury  for  the  benefit  of  these  institutuons;  (4) 
the  development  of  a  system  of  public  and  other  high  schools  affiliated 
with  the  University,  numbering  over  80,  in  which  preparation  for  Uni- 
versity classes  was  given;  (5)  the  enlargement  and  beautifying  of  the 
University  grounds,  the  introduction  of  waterworks,  sewerage,  electric 
lights,  steam  heating;  (6)  the  repairing  of  old  and  the  erection  of  new 
buildings,  and  the  increase  of  scientific  equipment  that  more  than  doubled 
the  value  of  the  plant;  (7)  the  enlargement  from  a  college  to  a  university 
curriculum  by  the  establishment  of  departments  of  Engineering  (Civil, 
Mining  and  Electrical),  Education  and  Medicine.  In  1892  there  were  157 
University  students  enrolled,  there  were  15  professors  and  instructors, 
the  total  annual  revenues  were  less  than  $40,000,  the  buildings  were  di- 
lapidated and  the  University  was  in  need  of  all  things.  During  the  ses- 
sion 1905-06,  the  last  under  his  administration,  there  were  enrolled  361 
University  students,  there  were  31  professors  and  instructors,  and  the 
total  revenues  of  the  University  were  over  $80,000,  with  other  funds  avail- 
able for  new  buildings  to  be  erected.  Besides  these  improvements,  he 
had,  after  obtaining  the  written  approval  of  a  majority  of  the  Board, 
secured,  in  1905,  the  offer  of  a  handsome  library  from  Mr.  Andrew  Carne- 
gie, which  offer  was  afterwards  declined  by  the  Board.  He  secured  from 
individual  friends,  in  and  out  of  the  State,  funds  for  the  Summer  School, 
and  for  prizes  and  other  current  needs  of  the  institution. 

Chancellor  Fulton  has  been  thrice  honored  with  the  degree  of  Doctor 
of  Laws,  holding  this  honor  from  the  University  of  Nashville,  South  Caro- 
lina College  and  the  University  of  Alabama.  Dr.  Fulton  has  been  prom- 
inent in  all  educational  work,  in  and  out  of  the  State.  He  took  the  in- 
itiative in  organizing  the  National  Association  of  State  Universities, 
including  the  presidents  of  forty  State  Universities,  and  was  for  five  suc- 
cessive years  elected  president  of  the  Association,  which  at  its  meeting  in 
November,  1905,  had  the  presidents  of  thirty-nine  State  Universities  pres- 
ent. He  was  president  of  the  Richmond  meeting  of  the  Southern  Edu- 
cational Association,  and  was  president  of  the  Department  of  Higher 
Education  of  the  National  Educational  Association  at  its  Los  Angeles 
meeting,  of  which  Association  he  is  a  director  and  a  member  of  the  Council . 
He  is  a  member  of  a  number  of  scientific  societies  and  a  fellow,  by  elec- 
tion, of  the  American  Association  for  the  Advancement  of  Science.  He 
is  an  Elder  in  the  Presbyterian  Church  and  has  represented  his  church  on 
several  occasions  in  the  General  Assembly  and  in  the  Pan-Presbyterian 
Alliance.  He  was  for  years  a  member  of  the  Executive  Committee  of 
the  Mississippi  Historical  Society,  and  a  Trustee  of  the  Department  of 
Archives  and  History  and  was  an  active  member  of  the  State  commis- 
sion in  charge  of  the  geological  survey  of  Mississippi. 

One  who  was  long  actively  associated  with  him  in  the  University  of 
Mississippi  characterizes  him  as  "scholarly,  yet  practical;  versatile,  yet 


78  i  \n  fu'sirv  of  Mississippi. 

accurate,  energetic,  tactful  and  systematic.  Chancellor  Fulton,  in  addi- 
tion to  his  thorough  acquaintance  with  the  history  and  needs  of  the  Uni- 
versity, possesses  a  combination  of  gifts  and  attainments  which  fits  him  in 
a  high  degree  for  the  office  which  he  has  filled  so  ably." 

In  his  college  days  Chancellor  Fulton  was  a  member  of  the  Chi  Psi 
Fraternity,  which  has  had  no  chapter  at  the  Uuiversity  for  many  years. 
Without  bias  or  prejudice  in  his  administration,  he  strove  to  be  just  to 
all,  and  was  ever  the  friend  of  the  poor  boy  struggling  for  an  education. 
The  Alumni  Loan  Fund  was  founded  at  his  instance.  Still  in  full  vigor, 
he  has  taken  up  the  administration  of  the  affairs  of  the  noted  Miller 
School  in  Virginia,  founded  for  this  class  of  boys,  who  have  always  had 
his  interest  and  sympathy. 

That  he  had  to  face  and  overcome  many  difficulties  in  his  great  work 
at  the  University  of  Mississippi  goes  without  saying.  His  deep  and  abid- 
ing interest  in  the  main  purpose  of  his  work,  the  advancement  of  the  Uni- 
versity of  Mississippi  in  all  that  makes  for  the  uplift  of  the  State,  left 
no  place  in  his  mind  for  bitterness  toward  any  who  differed  with  him  or 
strove  against  his  work.  No  change  of  affairs  can  mar  the  record  of  his 
achievements  for  his  Alma  Mater,  every  blade  of  grass  and  every  stone 
on  whose  grounds,  as  well  as  every  person  connected  with  her,  he  was 
known  to  love. 

ANDBEW    ABMSTBONG    KINCANNON,    A.B.,    M.S.,    LL.D. 

Over  obstacles  that  few  could  have  surmounted,  overcoming  opposi- 
tion at  every  step  that  would  have  daunted  a  less  manly  soul,  Andrew 
Armstrong  Kincannon  has  written  his  name  at  the  top  of  the  roll  of  Mis- 
sissippi educators.  The  very  utterance  of  the  name  suggests  the  strength 
and  resoluteness  of  him  who  bears  it  and  reminds  those  who  have  watched 
with  admiration  his  steady,  upward  stride  to  State  and  national  reputa- 
tion that  the  real  strength  of  the  man  and  the  chief  element  of  his  success 
has  been,  not  so  much  his  vigorous  intellect  and  clear  insight  into  men 
and  measures,  important  as  these  have  been,  but  rather  a  great  warm  heart 
which  has  enfolded  his  State,  and  uniting  with  his  indomitable  will  has 
made  to  him  no  service  too  arduous,  no  sacrifice  too  great  in  behalf  of  the 
sons  and  daughters  of  Mississippi.  Space  permits  a  mere  outline  sketch 
of  a  life  unusually  full  of  beneficence  and  honors. 

Born  in  Noxubee  County,  August  2,  1859,  a  child  amid  the  gloom  and 
disaster  of  the  early  sixties,  educated  in  Lee  County  in  the  days  of  recon- 
struction, revolution  and  financial  reverses,  Andrew  Armstrong  Kin- 
cannon,  the  second  son  of  James  and  M.  A.  Kincannon,  early  learned  the 
lessons  of  self-help  and  self-denial.  The  impress  of  both  father  and  mother 
are  easily  discernible  in  his  character,  and  his  devotion  to  his  parents  and 
to  his  brothers  and  sisters  have  ever  been  strikingly  manifest. 

From  the  Verona  High  School,  where  he  was  the  pupil  of  both  Drs. 
Deupree  and  Leavell,  of  the  University  faculty,  he  went  to  the  State  Uni- 
versity. At  the  University  he  was  elected  anniversarian  of  the  Phi  Sigma 
Literary  Society,  but  resigned  and  afterward  urged  a  change  in  the  method 
of  selecting  the  anniversarian.    From  the  University  he  went  to  the  Nor- 


UNIVERSITY  OF  MISSISSIPPI.  79 

mal  University,  Lebanon,  Ohio,  from  which  institution  he  took  both  the 
A.B.  and  M.  S.  degrees.  At  the  University  and  in  his  difficult  early  years 
as  teacher  in  the  Verona  High  School,  where  he  had  been  a  pupil,  he  gave 
evidence  of  that  executive  ability  for  which  he  has  later  become  distin- 
guished. 

Three  valuable  years  were  spent  as  assistant  professor  of  English  at 
the  Mississippi  A.  and  M.  College,  under  the  immediate  direction  of  that 
prince  of  English  teachers,  Dr.  W.  H.  Magruder,  and  under  the  general 
supervision  and  friendly  counsel  of  Gen.  Stephen  D.  Lee,  well  termed  the 
"father  of  industrial  education  in  the  South."  In  1886,  as  Superintendent 
of  Meridian  Public  Schools,  A.  A.  Kincannon  came  into  prominence  as  a 
leader  in  the  educational  awakening  and  reorganization  of  the  common 
schools  of  the  State.  He  found  in  Meridian  a  single,  disorganized,  un- 
equipped school;  in  ten  years  he  added  five  schools  and  developed  a  pop- 
ular, well  articulated  city  school  system.  During  this  period  his  influ- 
ence in  the  State  Teachers'  Association  and  in  county  institutes  was  nota- 
bly weighty  in  the  promotion  of  various  reforms,  and  naturally  so,  being 
as  he  was,  the  founder  and  head  of  the  first  and  largest  city  school  system 
in  the  State. 

It  should  be  mentioned  that  in  1888  an  epoch  in  his  life  was  made  when 
he  was  united  in  marriage  with  Miss  Mary  George  Barksdale,  daughter 
of  William  R.  Barksdale,  of  Grenada,  Miss.,  and  oldest  grandchild  of 
Senator  J.  Z.  George.  Thus  added  incentive  to  effort  came  into  his  life, 
and  with  it  the  sympathy  and  encouragement  of  a  wife  who  has  always 
entered  fully  into  his  plans  and  has  often  proven  herself  singularly  wise 
and  timely  in  her  counsel. 

In  1895,  after  a  brilliant  canvass,  in  which  he  triumphed  over  a  polit- 
ical combination  that  seemed  invincible,  Mr.  Kincannon  was  nominated 
by  acclamation  for  State  Superintendent  of  Education  by  the  largest 
Democratic  Convention  ever  assembled  in  Mississippi.  In  spite  of  the 
strong  sentiment  in  the  Legislature  of  1896  favoring  the  reduction  of  the 
common  school  fund,  the  appropriation  committee  recommending  only 
$700,000,  Superintendent  Kincannon  succeeded  in  inducing  the  Legis- 
lature to  increase  the  appropriation  to  $950,000  per  annum,  and  secured 
also  an  increased  appropriation  for  summer  normals.  Of  the  wholesome 
school  laws  that  bear  his  impress  mention  will  be  made  of  only  one,  the 
creation  of  the  State  Board  of  Examiners,  generally  conceded  by  the  best 
authorities  to  be  a  wise  statute.  Not  one  of  the  school  laws  adpoted  on 
his  recommendation  has  ever  been  repealed.  His  reports  as  State  Super- 
intendent of  Education  to  the  Legislature  attracted  wide  attention  on 
account  of  their  excellence  both  in  subject  matter  and  style.  Favorable 
criticism  was  evoked  from  the  leading  school  journals  of  the  United  States. 

Meanwhile  the  Industrial  Institute  and  College  for  the  white  girls  of 
the  State,  having  passed  through  years  of  internal  discord  and  weakness 
of  administration,  had  reached  a  crisis  in  its  history.  Doubtful  indeed, 
if  the  Legislature  would  appropriate  funds  for  its  support,  as  matters  then 
stood,  Governor  McLaurin,  Bishop  Galloway  and  others  members  of  the 
Board  of  Trustees  urged  Superintendent  Kincannon  as  a  patriotic  Mis-

sissippiao  to  accept  the  presidency  of  the  college  and  save  the  institution. 
With  his  plans  for  the  public  school  system  but  beginning  to  be  devel- 
oped, and  expecting  no  call  to  other  work  for  years  to  come,  Superintend- 
ent Kincannon  reluctantly  resigned  his  State  office  and  accepted  the 
presidency  of  the  1. 1,  and  C,  having  been  unanimously  elected  by  the  Board 
of  Trustees,  responding  to  the  call  of  duty  and  the  claims  of  the  girls 
of  .Mississippi,  as  the  Board  presented  the  case  to  him.  The  transforma- 
tion at  once  wrought  in  the  college,  the  doubling  in  a  few  years  of  its  fac- 
ulty and  student  body,  the  addition  of  building  after  building,  and  the 
ready  response  of  successive  Legislatures  to  President  Kincannon's  elo- 
quent appeals  for  funds  to  meet  the  increasing  needs  of  the  great  insti- 
tution, fondly  proclaimed  by  Governor  Vardaman  and  others  "the  pride 
of  the  State,"  are  facts  as  far  famed  as  the  institution,  attesting 
how  efficiently  President  Kincannon  met  the  great  demands  made  upon 
him,  and  far  surpassed  the  expectations  of  the  Board  and  even  the  best 
of  his  friends.  So  distinguished  have  been  his  services  to  the  I.  I.  and  C. 
that  repeatedly  has  he  been  called  to  similar  positions  in  other  States. 
But  these  have  moved  him  little,  for  to  his  own  State  duty  and  affection 
have  held  him  inflexibly  firm,  supremely  loyal. 

In  November,  1906,  he  was  called  to  the  chancellorship  of  the  State 
University,  but  declined  to  accept  it  for  reasons  satisfactory  to  himself. 
In  June,  1907,  Mr.  Kincannon  was  again  elected  to  the  chancellorship  of 
the  University,  and  after  having  had  more  power  conferred  upon  him 
than  heretofore  given  to  any  chancellor,  he  accepted  it. 

Chancellor  Kincannon  holds  the  LL.D.  degree  from  the  University 
of  Arkansas.  He  has  been  a  Director  of  the  National  Education  Asso- 
ciation, and  is  now  a  Director  of  the  Southern  Educational  Association. 
He  has  also  served  as  a  member  of  the  State  Board  of  Examiners. 

Of  the  important  events  and  improvements  which  have  marked  the 
opening  years  of  Chancellor  Kincannon's  administration,  the  following 
may  be  enumerated:  1.  The  "honor  system"  has  been  crystalized  and 
rendered  more  effective  by  the  creation  of  an  Honor  Council  representa- 
tive of  the  entire  student  body.  2.  A  Student  Bureau  of  Self  Help  has 
been  successfully  inaugurated.  3.  The  Legislature  of  1908  made  the  Uni- 
versity the  largest  appropriation  in  the  latter's  history.  As  results,  a 
large,  handsome  and  thoroughly  equipped  dormitory  for  men,  a  commo- 
dious and  beautiful  dining  hall  and  a  new  power  house  have  been  built; 
the  light  and  heat  distributing  systems  have  been  renewed  and  enlarged; 
and  about  one-half  mile  of  wide  concrete  walks  have  been  laid  where  most 
needed  on  the  campus.  5.  Plans  have  been  drawn  and  most  of  the  neces- 
sary funds  secured  for  a  magnificent  new  library  building.  6.  A  Depart- 
ment of  Pharmacy  has  been  established  and  has  been  in  most  successful 
operation  since  the  opening  of  the  session  of  1908-09.  7.  While  the  first 
two  years  of  a  regular  four-year  course  in  Medicine  have  been  given  since 
1903,  not  until  the  beginning  of  the  session  of  1909-10  were  the  last  two

Note. — The  change  from  the  close  curriculum  to  the  University  system 
in  1872  renders  a  new  and  different  classification  of  students  necessary. 
The  following  lists  contain  the  names  of  all  new  students  admitted  during 
the  session  ending  in  the  year  stated,  and  of  all  the  graduates  of  each  year. 
The  names  of  the  graduates  of  1875  or  1876,  and  all  succeeding  years,  are 
therefore  found  twice  in  the  lists — once  as  new  students,  then  as  graduates.

ALPHABETICAL  INDEX 

OF 

NAMES  OF  STUDENTS. 


This  alphabetical  list  contains  the  names  of  all  students  from  the  open- 
ing of  the  University  in  1848  to  the  end  of  the  session  of  1908-09.  The  total 
number  of  individual  students  enrolled  in  all  departments  during  this  period 
is  6.39S.  The  total  number  of  individual  graduates  (alumni)  is  1,650.  (This 
does  not  include  those  receiving  honorary  degrees.)  The  aggregate 
number  of  academic  and  professional  degrees  and  department  diplomas 
conferred,  1,801,  exceeds  the  number  of  alumni  for  the  reason  that  some  re- 
ceived both  a  Bachelor's  degree  and  the  Master  of  Arts,  others  graduated 
both  in  the  Academic  Department  and  a  Professional  Department,  while  a 
few  took  three  degrees. 

The  date  following  each  name  shows  one  year  in  which  the  student  at- 
tended the  University,  and  further  information  may  be  had  by  consulting 
the  lists  for  that  year  in  this  catalogue.  The  abbreviated  date  (e.  g.,  '68) 
indicates  that  the  student  graduated  in  this  year.  The  Letter  "L"  before 
a  date  indicates  that  the  student  was  in  the  Law  Department.  When  the 
letter  "G,"  in  parenthesis,  follows  a  name  the  meaning  is  that  the  student 
registered  for  graduate  work  during  the  session  indicated.  (See  list  of  Grad- 
uate Students,    page  325.) 

In  the  revision  of  this  alphabetical  list,  as  also  in  the  preparation  of  the 
statistical  table  which  precedes  it,  the  editor  has  exercised  care  and  has  made 
use  of  all   information   available.
